PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Building Princeton Residential Colleges 7 & 8 required the installation of over 220,000 square feet of brick veneer on eight buildings with connectors across 12 acres. Masonry contractor D.M. Sabia & Co., Inc. skillfully crafted unique elements of the veneer — including radial and corbeled corners that became square at the top and corbeled brick sections — as well as thin brick veneer, cast stone sills, and benches that were incorporated into the design. To keep the job progressing on multiple elevations, the team had 54 Fraco towers set up at one time and up to 100 masons on the job, with zero injuries.
