Scaffolding walkway at Chestnut Hill Hospital in Philadelphia, PA
Here’s a nifty little job. Something you might not see everyday: An Interior Canopy. Now, you might be asking yourself, why would Superior Scaffold put something that is normally outside on the sidewalk, inside a hospital?
It’s simple, really – Chestnut Hill Hospital needed to remain open for business while repair crews replaced the skylights in the entire lobby and vestibule. By putting what amounts to a canopy or sidewalk shed inside, doctors, patients, visitors and guests can all pass safely through the entrance while work continues overhead. It’s business as usual, as we say in the industry. I’ll post some pics of the all glass ceiling when I get them.
Chestnut Hill Hospital is a community-based teaching hospital with 164 beds offering a range of inpatient and outpatient, diagnostic and treatment services in Northwest Philadelphia. Superior is the best in the business when it comes to canopies / sidewalk sheds. Call (215) 743-2200 for information.
