October 18, 2006 -- Guarantee Electrical Company has been selected as the electrical contractor for Bryan Cave LLP's expansion in the Metropolitan Square building in downtown St. Louis, Missouri. ISC Contracting is the general contractor for the project.
According to a press release, the $3.5 million project includes new electrical and low-voltage systems for partner offices, secretarial stations, the accounting department, audio-visual presentation rooms, conference rooms, and an executive dining room for the law firm. Bryan Cave is expanding from 200,000 square feet on six floors to 225,000 square feet on nine floors.

Working in four phases of 12 to 17 weeks each, Guarantee is installing electrical, fire alarm, voice/data, security, and audio-visual systems for Bryan Cave. Guarantee began work on the project in June, and it is scheduled for completion by July 2007.
