Southbrook Church
Southbrook Church’s continuous and steady growth over the last several years facilitated the need for a larger space. In partnering with Catalyst Construction, the expansion project was divided into two phases. Phase One focused on the church’s children’s ministry and included secure child check-in rooms, toddler rooms and a dedicated nursery, Sunday School classrooms, a large kitchen, restrooms, and a spacious gathering area. Phase Two focused on the main ministry facility and included an expanded worship space, several additional classrooms, and a meeting area for students and adults.

Red Arrow Labs
Through a partnership with an independent Owner’s representative, Catalyst Construction was tapped to provide construction management services for renovation of the 200 N.

Evin Senior Care
Completed in November 2020, Evin Senior Care is a 123,000 square-foot senior living community with 80 residences situated on seven acres at the site of the former YMCA on Silver Lake street in Oconomowoc. Catalyst Construction was selected as the general contractor on the project which broke ground in October of 2019. The name “Evin” pays homage to Ole Evinrude, Oconomowoc native and the founder of Evinrude outboard motors who developed the first outboard boat motor as a means of “building a better way” to conduct nautical conveyance. Catalyst’s partnership with Matter Development and the City of Oconomowoc on [...]
Artist Lofts
Artist Lofts is an adaptive reuse project of the five-story historic Mirro Plant 3 Building in Manitowoc. Originally a manufacturing space for aluminum boats, the building was well-maintained and its open-concept layout, which featured very few interior walls, made it ideal for renovation from an industrial manufacturing facility to an apartment building. The renovation work involved Catalyst and its contractors restoring the exposed brick, metal beams and duct work as well as the wood ceilings and floors in areas where appropriate. The completed 40-unit affordable housing project features loft-style 2- and 3-bedroom apartments and extraordinary community spaces including an [...]
Aquinas Academy
In order for the Academy to go to the “next level” of excellence in Catholic education, administrators decided they needed to expand their campus to accommodate the growth that they have been experiencing consistently for several years.
88Nine Radio Milwaukee
As one of southeastern Wisconsin’s most culturally influential media outlets, 88Nine Radio Milwaukee has experienced incredible growth over the last several years. As a result, the radio station’s location in the basement of a public administration building was quickly becoming insufficient to accommodate its burgeoning community engagement and fulfillment of its mission. The station needed a space with more room and that would inspire community involvement and positivity. Catalyst Construction was brought onto the project and renovated a long vacant 14,000 square-foot, two-story building in Walker’s Point into a contemporary radio broadcast facility that serves as a cultural “town [...]
Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin Midtown Clinic
Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin selected Catalyst Construction for construction of its planned Midtown primary care clinic in Milwaukee. Rather than conduct a ground-up building project, the Catalyst team instead found a 20,000 square-foot building, formerly an office supply store, and converted it into a much needed multifunctional medical care facility. The clinic provides pediatric and adolescent primary care, behavioral medicine, and dental care all in an engaging new space that features state-of-the-art medical technology, amenities that cater specifically to pediatric patients and their families, and a spacious parking lot. Buildout of the facility’s dental surgical suite required substantial coordination [...]
