The Lantern Center for Recovery

The Lantern Center for Recovery is a sober living facility that serves chemically dependent males while setting them on a path to recovery.  With the unfortunate and dramatic rise of opiate related overdose deaths, The Lantern’s highly regarded ministry was stretched thin and in need of more square footage to increase their facility’s capacity and they looked to The Krueger Group to serve as general contractor for their long overdue expansion.  The overall project was broken up into 2 phases.

• Renovation of 3,637 square feet former auto body.
• Construction of 1,635 square feet mezzanine lounge constructed on top of bedrooms.
• Construction of 636 square feet addition by converting former delivery dock.
• Construction of 328 square feet connection corridor at back of existing facility.

The following scope of work was completed in phase II:

• Complete renovation of existing kitchen and dining room.
• Renovation of existing chapel into workout area.

Upon completion, the newly connected living quarters added the following:
