THE CHALLENGE

CBI designed various building envelope repairs and accessibility renovations while being sensitive to the historical fabric of the building.

CBI’S SOLUTION

CBI designed an ADA compliant ramp and stairs on the east elevation to provide access to the Children’s Reading Area.  Also included in the scope of work was cutting and pointing of limestone joints, installation of power operated storefront doors on the east and west elevations, refurbishing the original copper light fixture on the east elevation to be used as the egress lighting, repairs to the skylight glazing and installation of weather-stripping, removal of front granite monumental steps, foundation installation, and reinstallation of the steps.  CBI also performed limestone Dutchmen repairs at the bases of the columns.
