June was a busy and rewarding month at Forefront Structural Engineers, marked by meaningful milestones across a wide range of project types and locations. We celebrated the successful completion of a complex adaptive re-use + new hotel in New Orleans. We broke ground (and barriers) on what will become the tallest mass timber tower in the Western Hemisphere, located in Milwaukee, WI. We topped out on a mass timber "missing middle" housing project in Madison, WI. We began work

Last week, we had the opportunity to take part in the groundbreaking ceremony for The Edison, a project that has been years in the making and one we’re incredibly proud to be working on. Standing on site in Milwaukee, surrounded by collaborators, partners, and the broader project team, it was a meaningful moment to pause and recognize what this project represents, and what’s ahead.

There are moments in a project when the work truly comes to life, and for us, the first indoor show at The Salt Shed was one of those moments. After months of design, coordination, and construction, seeing the space filled with people, music, and energy marked an important milestone for a project we were proud to be part of.
