In 2017, Nancy Hill Elementary in Aurora, Illinois was completely rebuilt & reimagined.
Wanting to honor the legacy of the original, late 1800s redbrick school building, the new building was clad in Roeben “Westerwald Bunt Glatt” thin brick. The variation of color in the new brick mimics the old flashed brick, but was installed using modern high precision precast construction.
