Breaking Gound

Welcome the UWW Pike House Construction Blog! This site is intended to keep you connected to construction projects at the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity house located at 164 N. Prairie Street at the University of Wisconsin - Whitewater.

After six years of planning, projects are underway to bring the house up to city, state and federal building codes, and to improve the quality of life for members of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity - Kappa Omega Chapter.

Highlighted projects include:

• Life safety improvements, including the installation of fire alarms and a sprinkler system.
• The creation of a handicap accessible tenant room, bathroom, and kitchen.
• A parking lot allowing each tenant to have his own space.
• Improvements in landscaping and general outdoor appearance.
• The installation of a permanent outdoor sign.

Stay tuned for updates including descriptions of work completed, pictures, and ways that you can assist the chapter throughout the scope of this project. If you have any questions, comments or concerns about the blog or housing projects, don't hesitate to contact me at jwiedenhoeft@gmail.com.

In the bonds of brotherhood,

- Jason Wiedenhoeft (Kappa Omega, 2000)
