McCormick Place Convention Center

The McCormick Place expansion consisted of a new 2.5 million square foot exhibition hall, a 300,000 square foot interconnecting galleria between the existing East, North and new South Halls. The design scheme called for streets to be closed or moved, buildings to be demolished and an innovative single-level Class A exhibition space design. In addition, the team was tasked with accommodating existing structures, providing public access to the waterfront, building over seven active rail lines and involving the community in the building process. Clark served as the managing partner of Mc3D, the design/build team for the project which consisted of a consortium of developers, architects, engineers and contractors. Clark was also a managing partner of McCormick Place Contractors, the project’s joint venture construction management team.
