PORCELANOSA BUILDING, NEW YORK, NY

AIA BRONZE AWARD WINNING PROJECT

CTS Group was contacted in 2012 by Porcelanosa USA to provide a first class restoration for their new flagship showroom located at 202 5th Avenue in Manhattan. The scope of work included cleaning of the entire terra cotta and stone façade, restoration and repair to most of the roughly 3,000 terra cotta units, and re-creation of two 5-story terra cotta window bays which had previously been demolished.

CTS worked closely with the restoration contractor (Nicholson & Galloway) throughout construction, completing mockups, reviewing field conditions, and reviewing completed work to assure the highest quality of restoration was produced.

This project won an Honor Award from the New Jersey AIA in 2016 in the field of historic restoration.
