EASTERN STATE PENITENTIARY, PHILADELPHIA, PA

CELLBLOCK  1 & LINK ROOF

 

S. Harris & Co. provided drawings and construction management for the restoration of the Link 1 roof and the protection of the Cellblock 1 roof. The Link 1 roof and its structure was thoroughly surveyed to determine which members were salvageable and which required replacement. The Link roof was then completed with standing seam copper.  The Cellblock 1 roof was enclosed in a new rubber roof with skylights to protect it until it too can be restored.
