L.U. 364 (catv,ees,em,es,i,mt,rts&spa), ROCKFORD, IL — We thought 2023 was busy, but 2024 is shaping up to be another banner year for our local.
As we move into spring, Local 364 has several large-scale projects underway or about to start.
The Facebook project continues to set the bar for construction, with all work being done on time or ahead of time.
The Hard Rock Casino opens in late summer or early fall, and this project has continued to bring in more work to the Rockford area in and around the casino.
The new Walmart cold-storage facility, directly across from the Stellantis car assembly plant in Belvidere, has taken shape. This project is 1.3 million square feet and has come together fairly quickly.
And last, we have the Stellantis project, which was shuttered in 2023, but thanks to President Joe Biden and UAW President Shawn Fain, has new life. We are very excited to see work there again at the new EV plant. As of this writing, there are still several details to work out, but all of this work is off and running for Local 364.
