Adamo aims high in Detroit…

Contractor bounces back from Ford Auditorium incident.

Adamo Group has been awarded contracts for the demolition of the Detroit Medical Center (DMC) guest services tower in Detroit, MI and the former Riverwalk Plaza Hotel in Jackson, MI.

The demolition of DMC’s 90,000 square foot guest services building, at the corner of Mack and Beaubien, began Tuesday October 9th and is part of the DMC expansion program. A new parking structure will be built in its place.

The 120,000 square foot, nine story former Riverwalk Plaza Hotel demolition is slated to begin later this year for Jackson County.

Adamo will utilize the CAT 385CL Ultra High Demolition (UHD) Excavator on both projects. The implementation of this machine with a specialized Multi Processor attachment allows 360 degree hydraulic rotations letting you position the attachment for more precise, quick and cost effective demolition of heavily reinforced multi-story structures. The MP30 attachment with an over 90’ reach will be used for the DMC project and the MP20 attachment with an over 140’ reach will be used for the Riverwalk project. Adamo was the first contractor to premier the CAT 385CL as an owner/operator in the United States.
