SOLUTION
Verizon proved its commitment to preserving the historic character of the building by completely restoring the landmark Lobby. Dramatic fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity, coupled with smoke and water damage threatened to destroy the historic ceiling murals beyond repair. WFC assembled a team of artisans to meticulously restore the frescos, chandeliers and bronze work, while seamlessly incorporating modern environmental and security enhancements.
