Did you know the Admaston is over 100 years old? Read the article about our facade here:

THE FAÇADE

The entire façade was steam cleaned and new pointing done. 

Every five years in accordance with the New York City Local Law 11, the façade is  checked periodically for deterioration.

Any structural or cosmetic damage is corrected at the beginning of the five year cycle rather than at the end.

Over the years we have replaced pointing, terra cotta decorations (using a new process that uses a mixture of fiberglass and concrete that is created in molds made from the actual pieces of terra cotta.  This process is more impervious to wear than the original terra cotta.)  During our last façade work some 250 pieces of terra cotta were replaced.All regular windows were replaced by new double glazed windows with metal frames.

In the halls, the new stained glass windows with metal frames that are exact copies of the originals.  

The stained glass skylights in the lobby and the outer lobby are original to the building.
