$68,000 Saved and 1,600 Tons Diverted - Project Spotlight

3/8/2019

0 Comments

 
​In 2018, WasteCap Resource Solutions consulted on the demolition of two masonry-and-steel light industrial buildings located at 2048 and 2100 Winnebago St., in Madison. The two buildings combined - one one story and the other two stories - totaled 35,000 square feet. ​WasteCap and other local nonprofits including Sector 67, which specializes in tech and engineering, worked to salvage reusable material and equipment from the buildings during the demolition. Much of the remaining material was recycled. In total, 1,600 tons, or 75.26% of demolition waste was diverted from the landfill, saving the owner, Accipiter Properties, $68,000.

Deconstruction to Assist with Chronic Flooding at KK River

9/1/2015

5 Comments

 
Five years ago, massive flooding caused more than $30 million of damage in Milwaukee’s 30th street corridor through water damage of 3,000 homes. The 2010 storm inspired a project by the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) to reduce the risk of flooding. Work is underway to create three storm water basins to relieve the problem. To make room for the basins, MMSD collaborated to relocate seven homeowners and tenants that had all seen chronic flood problems over the years in preparation for removing houses.
