Here's something we didn't know about Doug Money!



From Doug Money:
I have been retired for only about three years now. Other than relaxing, enjoying the family and having more time to fish I am still working on that great retirement story or experience to share. I have shared that I am from the Chicago area and was in commercial construction. Every contractor though has that one project they are most proud of in their career. 

For me it was leading the project team from 1996 thru 1998 on construction of an underground parking garage, new lobby entrance and the Pioneer Zephyr train exhibit for the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry.  



History & Architecture buffs may know that the original building that houses this museum is the last surviving major structure from the 1893 Chicago World's Exposition.


Train enthusiasts would find it interesting that in 1934 the Zephyr broke the speed record from Denver to Chicago in 13 hours.
