Cornell Roofing and Sheet Metal has proudly been serving Independence, Missouri, and the greater Kansas City area since 1927. Our success over the years has been driven by our commitment to quality craftsmanship and the strong relationships we’ve built with local partners. One recent project that exemplifies the power of local collaboration is the construction update of the former GEHA building slated to become the new Independence City Hall, located at Little Blue Parkway and I-70.
This project is more than just a transformation to become a new municipal building; it’s a symbol of growth and revitalization for Independence. We are proud to be a part of it as a key contractor, providing expert roofing and sheet metal services. What makes this project especially significant for us is our use of new, state-of-the-art crane equipment, which has greatly enhanced our capabilities on this and other large-scale projects. This investment in cutting-edge, heavy machinery equipment was made possible thanks to the support of Blue Ridge Bank and Trust, a local community bank that has served Independence and the Kansas City area since 1958. Headquartered just across I-70 from the new City Hall, Blue Ridge Bank and Trust has been a steadfast partner to many businesses in the area, and their financing of our crane equipment underscores the importance of local partnerships in driving our city’s progress.
The collaboration between Cornell Roofing and Sheet Metal and Blue Ridge Bank and Trust is just one example of how local companies can come together to fuel the vitality of Independence. When local businesses support each other, they not only contribute to individual success but also to the overall health of the local economy. As new developments and projects like the Independence City Hall continue to shape our community, it’s these partnerships that ensure our city remains strong and prosperous for years to come.
We’re honored to play a role in building the future of Independence, one project at a time. To learn more about Cornell Roofing and Sheet Metal, visit www.cornellroofing.com or call us today at 816-252-8300.
