14th Street Facade











In the process of creating a new curtain wall facade for an office renovation the front masonry facade is removed revealing hidden layers of history. The rusting steel skeleton of the original 1800’s construction remain, retrofitted with a new brick facade in the mid 1900’s.
A steel structure remains hidden between the window bays and at the side pier walls are terracotta clad steel columns. The operation of the project is to carefully remove, hoist and support the edge of the floors with new steel both at the edges of existing floors, and vertically through the new curtain wall facade.
