Glass Block in Commercial Buildings
Commercial properties — office buildings, retail centers, mixed-use developments, and specialty commercial buildings — use glass block for both functional and architectural purposes. Glass block provides natural light, privacy, and a distinctive visual character that conventional glazing cannot replicate.
In commercial real estate, glass block is often specified for stairwells, corridors, restrooms, and other common areas where natural light is desired but privacy or security is also a concern. It's also used as an architectural feature in lobbies, entries, and exterior facades.
Hawkeye installs commercial glass block in office buildings, retail centers, and other commercial properties throughout Upstate New York — working on new construction, renovation, and replacement projects.
