Pottawatomie County Justice Center

Progress is being made on the Justice Center in spite of a run of 100 degree temperatures. Crews are working especially hard to keep the project on schedule.

 

One can easily see how dry and hot the site became. As luck has it, just when foundation work begins, the county receives 4 inches of rain. 

Our team is not slowed long by a little water though. Work quickly resumes.

Foundations are nearly in, the ground source heating and cooling system below grade is in place. The building will soon rise above ground level.

Rainforest Renovations Nearing Completion

Domes on the rain forest building at the Topeka Zoological Park are nearly all installed. The building is being polished up to reopen again the end of this month. This building looks like it did when it opened 40 years ago. Now that plants inside the dome are mature, this exhibit will be better than ever. Make plans to visit the zoo again around the first of June and experience a Tropical Rain Forest exhibit as never before.

Penguin Plunge - Coming to Topeka Zoological Park.

KBS Constructors is a proud sponsor of this traveling zoo exhibit. Because of our involvement with The Zoo over the years, I have developed a whole new appreciation for the animals that live there and the keepers who work so hard to give them a good home. They make the experience fun for all visitors. Consider visiting the zoo again this summer. You will be glad you did.

Topeka Zoological Park - Rain Forest Dome Upgrades

How does one know when it is time to replace the glazing on a tropical rain forest? Perhaps when the facility exceeds 40 years old and the acrylic panels are becoming hazy and cracked. Maybe then the time is right. 

Such is the case with the Tropical Rain Forest Exhibit at the Topeka Zoological park. As residents patiently wait, KBS Employees are quickly replacing the glazing panels at the facility.

Of course you might still wonder if the expense of restoring the dome is really necessary.

Then you see the difference new acrylic panels make. 

Re-glazing work underway

Make plans to come by the Topeka Zoological Park this summer. Experience the refurbished Tropical Rain Forest Exhibit and see the plants and animals again, this time in all their splendor.

Volunteers for KBS Constructors Foundation are working on Catch For A Cause, a fun event to promote Victory Junction and raise money for construction of the Victory Junction Midwest camp. This year we are combining the Fishing Tourney with the Fishing Festival on the same day, Saturday June 2nd. We think it will make for a more exciting event. Watch this location for more details. You can also monitor updates on Facebook. Search for Catch For A Cause. We hope to see you there.
