Fiberglass Grating Project Information:
Using similar concepts as the Davis Square Lofts, but on a larger scale, the Forbes Park Revitalization Project aimed to convert the Forbes Lithographic Company site into 400 residential loft units along the Chelsea River. The building was cut in half, with the middle portion of
the roof removed completely to allow more
natural day lighting, air circulation and passive
cooling for the living spaces. Needing materials that would be resistant to the snow and typical weather of the Northeast United States, American Grating’s 1 1/2” Deep x 1” x 6” SuperSpan Molded FRP Grating was used on all decks and walkways.
