Building for the Future Episode 16 | Sky Bridge Concrete Pour and Window Install

One of The WaterFire Arts Center’s defining characteristics is the elevated sky bridge spanning the width of the building. It has just received its new concrete floor, and in a few days, we will be using it to access our space! The west facing wall has received nearly all of its windows, and in this video, you can see up close how they are secured into their frames.
