Case Stories

Head architect, Murray Beynon of BBB Architects had a challenging job. The new arena had to fit within the existing structure, while offering all the amenities current sports fans expect.

Solution

For the exterior Construction Specialties (CS) provided custom curved Storm Resistant Vertical Louvers that needed to fit perfectly into the fluted alcoves. The extremely tight radius, special shaped corner louvers were being mounted in precast panels. This necessitated additional engineering and working in conjunction with the steel and precast people to insure a proper fit. Always a challenge to ship into Manhattan, it was decided since C/S was ahead of schedule in producing the louvers we would ship them to customer’s facility in Long Island. They would then bring louvers in to the job-site as needed. CS is proud to showcase our product on the most recognized arena in the world.
