St. Francis Xavier Catholic School System is making exciting changes to Rocky Bleier Field at Xavier High School. Field renovations include installing artificial turf, new high jump area/long jump pits, the addition of water to player sidelines and upgraded electrical facilities.

McMahon is excited to provide site design/engineering and construction management services for this project.

These changes will broaden the student events and experiences that can make use of the field, including additional sports teams, the band and other student clubs. Additionally, it will provide year-round access for the entire Xavier School System community.

St. Francis Xavier Catholic School System’s commitment to enhancing facilities not only provides ideal settings for extracurricular activities but also instills a sense of pride within the community. This project is one of many outlined in a comprehensive master facility plan to enhance school facilities and, by extension, the educational experience of their students.

Construction is now underway, following a groundbreaking event that was held on November 20, and is expected to be completed in the Spring or Summer of 2024.

Work on a new fire station is underway in Chilton, Wisconsin. On March 9, 2023, McMahon participated in the groundbreaking ceremony for the new 8,648-square-foot facility.  

 McMahon is providing full architectural, civil and structural engineering design services. McMahon will continue services into the construction phase of the project with Bayland Buildings as the general contractor.  

The new facility replaces the original 1935 fire station wing of the current City Hall complex. 

The new facility will provide additional vehicle space – an increase needed due to modern-day fire truck specifications and increased sizes. More room will also be added for non-vehicular firefighting equipment.  

“Firefighting equipment, vehicles and training space needs have grown since 1935,” stated Mike Martin, architect at McMahon. “We are very happy to help the City and Fire Department continue to grow and provide important services to the community.”
