Gillespie Design Group and the ownership of Grand Food Center in Winnetka designed an addition to the original, smaller local grocery chain.
Location: 606 Green Bay Rd, Winnetka, IL 60093
Products: Interstate Brick Company, Slotted Structural “ATLAS” Brick “Copperstone” color.
Notes: The brick was 2-1/4″ tall (just like a modular size brick) but the length was 15-5/8″ You would not be able to tell from the images since the brick appears to be a modular sized unit. The brick is actually 8″ deep and is the structural load bearing element of the building addition. An added bonus is that this #structural #masonry unit is also fire rated and certified by Underwriters Laboratories. Check out UL U935 for more information.
