Story
The crew laid over 55,000 eight-inch CMU blocks to construct robust stair and elevator shafts, backstage areas, and a 300-foot-long fire wall for a premier concert venue. Working efficiently on an accelerated timeline, the team installed more than 45,000 SF of stone across the facility. This extensive masonry work featured 1,600 SF of hand-split radius stone, ultimately delivering a timeless full-stone veneer that creates a welcoming, visually striking atmosphere for concert-goers.
