CB&I office expansion approved

THE WOODLANDS, Texas -- Chicago Bridge & Iron has announced a $35 million expansion for its facility at 2103 Research Forest Drive, which will accommodate at least 200 full-time equivalent jobs at its planned completion date of Dec. 31, 2014. The expansion plans for an additional 150,000 square foot office building, another parking garage and another floor to the current parking garage at its campus in The Woodlands.

CB&I relocated its worldwide administrative office from Plainfield, Illinois to The Woodlands, Texas in 2001. The move put the company closer to its many multinational customers in the hydrocarbon industry that maintain their U.S. headquarters or a significant presence in the Houston area.
