The Henry Group's Handiwork Featured in Architectural Record
We were chosen as the Stainless Steel fabricators in the winning design produced by Centerbrook architects William H. Grover and James C. Childress for the Central Street Bridge Project in Worchester, MA.
The 178 Ft. bridge is an architectural hallmark of the city, and it is the handiwork of our fabricators that produced the features that residents and visitors consider so pleasing.
To Quote the Architectural Record:
"The bridge... features broad arches of gleaming stainless steel with
radial supports accompanying the traditional safety railings. The steel matrix
imitates the alignment of the calliope’s pipes and creates a graduated screen
for the city that contrasts sharply with the brick-clad reinforced concrete
piers and the abutments emerging from surrounding earth berms. The steel railings
feature three different levels of polish to vary their reflective sheen. At
night, a kaleidoscopic play of stoplights and signs against the metal heightens
the effect, hinting at the energy of the city ahead. "
