LaSalle Bank Theater

Water infiltration and building movement caused the following problems:

• Open and cracked mortar joints in the terra cotta
• Spalling and missing terra cotta pieces
• Corrosion of underlying structural steel anchors and elements
• Failure of adhesion at sealant joints

BAMR restored the terra cotta façade on all four elevations of the building as follows:

• New and salvaged terra cotta pieces were reinstalled with stainless steel anchorage
• Grinding and tuckpointing of masonry joints
• Replacement of sealant at sky joints and window perimeters
• Replacement, cleaning and painting of structural steel elements
