Naples CSD

Cast Stone Institute 2009 DESIGN EXCELLENCE Award Winner

This restoration project is an 18-foot tower at the top of Naples Central School District building, was erected in the 1930’s, and remains today a focal point of the town of Naples. The scope includes the complete replacement of the existing Cast Stone tower structure as well as the 4’ tall urns.

The role of Cast Stone was to replicate the entire original exposed aggregate Cast Stone structure, while maintaining the historical integrity of the intricate architectural details.

The replacement Cast Stone is an identical replication of the original tower, but to improve long-term durability of the structure, the new Cast Stone was designed thinner than the original stone, which reduced the load bearing on the building.
