🚧 Progress continues on the St. Louis Children's Hospital at CoxHealth 🚧

This week, crews installed the first structural steel columns at the Children’s Hospital project, marking the beginning of vertical construction and a major milestone for the project team.

Every column placed brings this future healthcare facility one step closer to serving patients and families.

One of the things that makes KCI unique is the diversity of work our teams take on every day.

At KCI, no two projects are the same. One day, you might be helping build a bridge that connects communities. The next, you could be working on a wastewater treatment project that supports critical infrastructure behind the scenes.

That variety not only keeps the work interesting—it gives our employees the opportunity to expand their skills, tackle new challenges, and make an impact across multiple industries. It’s this diverse portfolio—and the talented teams behind it—that makes a career at KCI anything but ordinary.

You waited.
We worked.
For about 1,510 days.
Nobody’s more excited for the construction to be done than you… except maybe us.

The I-55 Bridge Rehabilitation Project is complete! Thank you everyone for your patience through the construction and delays. We are happy to bring you a new, improved, and safer driving experience with 24 rehabilitated bridges, 5.5 miles of barrier wall, and 10 miles of roadway improvements.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month.

At KCI, we know strong teams are built by looking out for one another—on and off the jobsite. That’s why we’re committed to fostering a culture where our people feel supported, valued, and encouraged to speak up when they need help.

Mental health matters every day, not just this month. Whether it’s through resources, conversations, or simply checking in on a coworker, we’re committed to showing up for our team and for each other.

Because no one should have to carry the weight alone.

Progress is stacking up at the 79th Street Retaining Wall Project.

KCI crews are wrapping up work on the new Elsberry Wastewater Treatment Facility. The project included construction of new headworks, oxidation ditch, sludge digester, clarifiers, pump stations, and UV disinfection system, along with major sitework and infrastructure improvements.

From earthwork and cast-in-place concrete to underground/process piping, electrical controls, and masonry construction—this project took coordination across multiple trades to bring it to the finish line. Great work by everyone involved.
