years ago, Millikin University embarked on an
extensive growth and improvement program for the
campus and surrounding area.
Joined by the Oakwood Business
Association representing property owners in the
area, a decision was made to upgrade lighting

BWC’s
role included electrical design for the
replacement of wooden light and utility poles
with historic street lamps for a major lighting
renovation of the area, as well as services
during bidding and observation of construction.
