Additionally, last summer, New Land completed construction on Ascent MKE (www.AscentMKE.com), which has received international recognition for its pioneering use of mass timber, and at 25 stories is the tallest mass timber hybrid structure in the world. Ascent has been featured in national media like the WSJ, Chicago Tribune, NPR, and PBS NewsHour.
