Providence College | Harkins Hall

Project Details

Harkins Hall, Providence College in Rhode Island

 The very first campus building at Providence College, founded in 1917, Harkins Hall today houses administrative offices as well as lecture halls and classrooms. Collegiate Gothic Style architecture and time restrictions dictated the summer-month replacement of over 450 windows, including complex Gothic and round-top shapes. 

• Original steel TDL windows were replaced with Winco Series 3250 architectural aluminum windows with narrow sightlines and SOL muntins

• Existing steel window frames were to left in place to facilitate window replacement and save money

• Panning systems and snap trims permitted replacement windows to sit on top of -- and cover up -- the existing window frames

• Glass system: Clear PPG SolarBan60 #2

• Azon Azo-Braded thermally broken sash and frame
