We were fortunate to consult with Ennead Architects on a significant project for Jazz at Lincoln Center: a Grand Stair that features 8-foot wide structural glass treads, an industry first.
Serving as the focal point of the public space at JALC, the Grand Stair is supported by a 30-ft single run of stringer and weighs more than 24,000 lbs. We also design-engineered and fabricated a spectacular curved glass guardrail for the Billie Holiday Terrace that extends 70 linear feet and a corresponding South Staircase, custom acoustic doors and windows and a contemporary glass guardrail for the Benjamin Menschel Arcade.
