Upon the death of my father John T. Lucas, in conjunction with Vinci Construction I was one of five site superintendents, and I was primarily involved with the layout and erection of the structural steel. The project had a large footprint, with the building consisting of two intersecting ovals, with an above layered building design. I went to France to assist in the raising of my Daughters after my Wife had passed away in 2008, and found a unique opportunity to working the construction business overseas. I had both an interesting and learning experience in the layout, design, and construction of a modern specialty Hospital. Project was completed. I purchased the construction division of Lucas Industries and Electric from the family renaming it LucasBilt. This was my own company that I began in 1992 as a vault reconstruction and water-proofing company. The company specialized in steel construction historic and landmark preservation doing such jobs as Carnegie Hall US Government contracts for Independence Hall Grants Tomb Statute of Liberty grounds and Ellis Island. I closed the company mainly due to the loss of my largest contract being the World Trade Center Plaza following 911. The Company took a huge financial loss and proved unsustainable with almost all my work was in lower Manhattan and downtown New York was in a state of flux after 911. In addition I had family obligations overseas following the unexpected death of my Wife in June 2008 who was from and was living in France at the time. I have two Daughters who were still in High School in France at the time and I felt that it was best to move there until they were ready for College. I Responsibilities I was hired as a site superintendent for the renovation of a large warehouse in Queens, New York to house the factory and executive offices of BULUVA Watch Company, and LOEWS Corporation. The job was demanding as much of the factory had moved into the site while the site was still under renovation. The work then had to be done on two shifts, at night 1200 sq. ft. of overhead scaffolding and protection had to be moved and reinstalled for the next day's factory work. The interior division was phased out of the parent corporation. worked on a variety of commercial interior projects including Banks Law Firms Brokerage Houses Large Stores and Museums. Nico was at the time the largest interior construction company in New York City contracting in hundreds of projects each year. It was not unusual for me to have five or more projects running simultaneously however the work load was structured so that most of the projects were in the same geographic area. Ninety percent of my projects were in the financial center downtown Manhattan. The work was varied with over 40 projects completed from a range of five hundred thousand to two million dollar contracts. This Site Superintendent Project Manager George A. Fuller Construction Company job opportunity with George A. Fuller Construction was the start of my career. I was immediately put to work as an assistant site-superintendent for Water Tower Place on Michigan Avenue downtown Chicago. This was a multi-dimensional job consisting of Offices Residences a Shopping Mall and a Hotel. I stayed on this job for two and a half years eventually becoming a full site superintendent for the overall renovation of the Drake Hotel and the PlayBoy Club Building also on Michigan Ave. In addition to the above jobs mentioned I worked as Site Superintendent on two passenger terminals at O'hare Airport Cook County Medical Center Law Offices and the Downtown Merchandise Mart Wrigley Field and Soldier Field Stadiums.
