Located at 57 Worth Street in New York City, this project involved a comprehensive façade restoration program focused on preserving and upgrading the building’s historic exterior while ensuring full safety compliance.

Royal Concrete & Masonry was engaged to execute a multi-scope restoration, addressing a combination of limestone, brick, and terracotta elements across the façade. The work included extensive limestone repairs, requiring detailed craftsmanship to restore both structural integrity and the building’s original architectural character. Damaged terracotta components were carefully replaced, while deteriorated brick sections were removed and rebuilt to match the existing façade.

Repointing was performed across all masonry types, including brick, limestone, and terracotta, to reinforce the building envelope and prevent water infiltration. In addition, new railing systems were installed, contributing to both safety and aesthetic improvement.

Due to the complexity of the structure and urban location, the project required a combination of pipe scaffolding and suspended (hanging) scaffolding systems to safely access all work areas. Comprehensive site safety measures were implemented, including a dedicated Site Safety Manager, engineered safety plans, and full adjacent property protection.

This project highlights Royal’s ability to manage high-value façade restorations involving multiple materials, delivering precise workmanship while maintaining strict safety standards in dense city environments.
