Harvest Bible Chapel
Leopardo completed four major construction projects totaling 500,000 square feet for this suburban mega church and its multiple campuses.
- Completed the conversion of a 40,000-sf warehouse to establish the Crystal Lake campus, which included an 800-seat auditorium, children’s ministry classrooms, multi-purpose rooms, cafeteria and bookstore (2008).
- Built two phases of a three-level, 300,000-sf addition at Harvest’s main Elgin campus. The new 2,500-seat auditorium featured a 54-foot tall audience chamber with a tiered floor, catwalk structures and theatrical lighting. The project also included children’s ministry classrooms, multi-purpose rooms, cafeteria, bookstore, gymnasium and extensive audio/video equipment installations (2007).
- Built a 50,000-sf school known as Harvest Christian Academy at the Elgin campus. The elementary and middle school included 20 new classrooms, a 630-seat temporary worship center, library, science laboratory, art room, gymnasium and kitchen (2004).
- Converted a 106,000-sf warehouse, located just off Illinois Rt. 53, into Harvest’s Rolling Meadows campus. The project included a two-story, 265-seat worship center with tiered seating, gymnasium, admin office and new chapel (2000).

During the 20 plus years that I have been involved with architecture and construction, I have never participated in such a successful 'team approach.'

Leopardo isn't just a canned outfit that has pretty much the same story as everybody else. They very diligently defend and protect the client's interests.
