About the project
The exterior of the building features a façade of Select Buff Indiana StoneLite® limestone panels broken up by 8 inch bands of Chelmsford granite StoneLite® panels.
Approximately 20,000 sq. ft. of the same exterior stones were installed on the interior walls over steel stud framing. The average size panel was 5′ x 3’4″ but the pieces weighed only 60 lbs. Some panels were fabricated to various angled corner shapes, others to a convex curve or a concave curved shape at a fraction of the cost that would have been incurred for solid stone.
Another 9,000 sq. ft. of StoneLite® was installed on the upper exterior walls over the atrium.
