PROJECT SPOTLIGHT
Baltimore, MD – Providing natural daylight to six stories of cast iron balconies containing over 300,000 rare and historic volumes is a new skylight at the George Peabody Library in Baltimore, MD. Sitting 61 feet above its black and-white marble floor and massive glass laylight, the distinctive skylight and laylight system, which had only seen minor repairs since the building opened some 130-plus years ago, was showing signs of water infiltration, threatening the book collection below. The skylight was poorly insulated, and access within the attic, above the laylight, was limited.
