EXCITING NEWS!

 

With the approval of our members, ILA 1475 has spent two years exploring the possibility of building a new hiring hall on our property at Minus Avenue and Main. Today, we are pleased to announce that we have a design, and building permits have been granted!

It has been a long journey, but the end is in sight — the hall will be built by the membership, for the membership. You are encouraged to check out the architectural renderings in the video. Thanks to brother Justin Oltmanns for preparing the video, and to everyone who has participated in this process!
