reclaimed granite from dilworth plaza, center city PhiladelphiaDilworth Plaza, named for former Philadelphia mayor, Richardson Dilworth, was part of a 1960s urban renewal project spearheaded by Edmund Bacon, then executive director of the City Planning Commission, and designed by architect Vincent Kling. The original design included large expanses of granite, a sunken plaza to the north, and spiral staircase to the south; each allowing access to the underground transportation concourse below City Hall. The 2012 renovation addresses the spaces limited accessibility by eliminating stairs and changes in elevation. The project plans include repurposing approximately 12,000 square feet of the granite. Provenance Architecturals is pleased to offer the remainder as a high quality reclaimed material.
