Project Summary
Value: $1,200,000
The historic McLauthlin Building in Boston’s North End was one of only two remaining cast iron facades in the City of Boston. The building owner was faced with very few options as the façade was in a state of disrepair to the point that large cast iron components were falling from the building and the engineering team they were working with could not provide a clear path forward other than removing the historic façade completely. Understanding the owner’s desire to keep the façade intact but needing to find a solution that was financially feasible Fulton Properties worked with all stakeholders to come up with a path forward that met all the major requirements of the project. The result was a safe and secure cast iron façade that continued to represent the historic beauty and intricate detail of the unique cladding system.
