Road America has broken ground on a new 5,500-square-foot administration building.
The building will be located on the Road America grounds, just east of the current farmhouse office on Wisconsin 67, two miles south of Elkhart Lake.
The building’s design will reflect the farming heritage of the rural Elkhart Lake area while recalling elements of existing buildings located on Road America grounds. The frame building will combine simple geometric forms, traditional gabled roofs, wood clapboard siding, and double hung windows to create a building which is unique yet compatible with the 19th-century Victorian buildings found throughout rural Wisconsin.
Completion of the project is set for spring 2009 under the guidance of two Wisconsin companies, Milwaukee-based Zimmerman Architectural Studios, Inc., and Kaukauna-based construction company James J. Calmes and Sons, Inc.
