Glass Block for Public Buildings
Municipal and government buildings in Upstate New York represent some of the most important and enduring structures in the region. Many were built during the mid-20th century — when glass block was a standard specification for public buildings — and their original glass block installations are now reaching the end of their service life.
Hawkeye works on municipal and government building projects throughout Upstate New York — from city halls and courthouses to fire stations, police stations, and public works facilities. We understand the procurement requirements, documentation expectations, and quality standards that come with public sector work.
We work on both new construction and renovation projects, and we have experience with the restoration of historic glass block installations in landmark public buildings.
