Macy's

Project Details

Allen Architectural Metals was tasked with dismantling, cataloging, and transporting 69 tons of iron to their Alabama base for restoration. The original windows were replicated using WINCO’s 1450H series windows set in metal frames by Linetec, finished with a 70 percent Kynar paint that matches the lily pad green of the surrounding framework. The restored historic façade was reinstalled over a concrete weather wall that is Macy’s portion of the new building. Monolithic glass with a tinted, reflective infill hides the contemporary building from passersby while presenting the facade’s original sightlines.
