Job Facts
Client: Harmon Contract
Location: Baltimore, MD
Completed: 1990

B&B fabricated several parts for this Baltimore landmark building, the largest of which was a pedestrian canopy made from fabricated steel plate. The architectural canopy, some 20ft. above the sidewalk, contains all kinds of curves and parabolic shapes. In addition, we furnished miscellaneous clips for the entire building’s glass curtain wall. B&B fabricated, finish-painted, sandblasted, and erected the canopy on the grounds outside of our shop. Then, Harmon Contract came in and glazed it. To ship the 15 ft. wide x 40 ft. wide structure all in one piece, we had to get special permits from the City and County of Baltimore.
