Behind Bars

This sturdy rebar frame will be filled with concrete to thicken and reinforce our historic walls as part of our seismic stabilization efforts! The building is currently unreinforced masonry, so the importance of earthquake-proofing cannot be overstated.
One of these frames will be erected in each corner of the building, and all four will be connected by large steel beams built into the upper and lower floors. The result will be a “cage” integrated seamlessly into the walls, securing the structure against tremors without compromising the character of the building’s historic design.
