The Atlantic Building

The Atlantic, a former office tower turned luxury residential building designed in 1922 as the headquarters of the Atlantic Petroleum company, required a comprehensive facade investigation as a result of failed terra cotta masonry and the presence of potentially unsafe conditions. Our rope access technicians completed a total of 36 rope access drops to perform the up-close visual and tactile investigation of 100% of the exposed terra cotta elements and direct a contractor to complete stabilization measures to correct potentially unsafe conditions. As the building owner transitions the property to new residential apartments, O&N is continuing to provide professional engineering services to complete repairs to the building exterior and extend its useful life.
