MSC Completes New Shedd Aquarium Corporate Offices
Modular Structures Corporation of North America (MSC) has just completed a temporary addition to Chicago's John G. Shedd Aquarium, the largest indoor aquarium in the world. MSC's 7 modular units create a 5600 square foot temporary office space above the aquarium's existing Wild Reef exhibit. These temporary offices will allow 30 Shedd employees to continue business as usual while the aquarium remodels its permanent offices over the next two years.

MSC's dramatic addition of 7 modular structures to the Shedd's south platform required the use of a 500-ton crane, one of only 14 this size in the world. Beyond the temporary office addition, MSC also acted as the project's general contractor overseeing all interior work.

The result is a spacious, functional office environment that allows the aquarium to maintain staff productivity in the midst of a long-term permanent expansion.
