Transport Platform, Mast Climbers, The Residences at Mid-Town Park, 9th & Orange, Wilmington, DE

June 20, 2018

Superior Scaffold does its part to help the rejuvenation of Wilmington’s central business district. We provided our TP-2500 transport platform and several mast climbing units to help BPGS construct this $75 million, 231 unit luxury apartment complex in downtown. The Residences at Mid-Town Park, located at 820 N. Orange St, are getting high end amenities such as 12,000 square feet of retail space, a 511 space parking garage, demonstration kitchens and dog-washing stations in each unit. The Residences also will feature an outdoor swimming pool, a fitness center and screening room. It’s all in the plan to create change in the struggling...

The Pavilion, Penn Medicine, Multiple Stair Towers

April 10, 2018

by superiorscaffold

This is one of those jobs where I can let the pictures do the talking. It's a giant project and just seeing the scope is inspiring. The Pavilion will be a new hospital facility that will house 500 private patient rooms and 47 operating rooms in a 1.5 million square foot, 17-story facility. I’ll include the finished rendering so you can see what it's going look like. I will say that we have had 8 – yes – 8 stair towers in this massive hole over the past year in various locations and we will be erecting the 9th this week. Several...

Send me your money – Overhead protection and suspended scaffold at 1900 Market St.

March 23, 2018

by superiorscaffold

It goes like this. You take your hard earned cash and give it to a stock broker who promises to make you a rich man. He says, “stick with me son, you’ll be farting through silk.” And since you don’t know jack about stocks and bonds only that you’ve seen these arrogant young punks driving around in Maseratis, Teslas and Ferraris you assume that they know what they are doing. So, against your better judgment - you send him your money. Maybe you check in with him maybe you don’t, but a few months later he calls and says, "wow we are...

New Construction, The Alexander, 1601 Vine St. 14 swing stages!

March 8, 2018

by superiorscaffold

New building construction. That’s not something you see us writing about at Superior Scaffold. We tend to show you the work we do renovating the classic old buildings. But we actually do quite a bit of new building construction. I just tend to focus on the old architecture because they make really pretty pictures. Ha. Don’t tell my boss. But when the guys at Armor Masonry brought us along for this job we thought it was a great opportunity to showcase some really complicated work on the Alexander – a new 32-story residential tower located on the North side of Center City. It’s...

Say Something. 1617 JFK Blvd., Canopy, Overhead protection around entire block!

March 2, 2018

by superiorscaffold

Most of my posts are written and then I come up with the musical theme but this one was written the other way around. I heard the song and thought it was fantastic but when I saw the video it just moved me. It's one of the coolest combinations of film and music I've seen in a long time. (scroll to bottom) This is one beautiful job – you can’t deny. When you see it you just know it is quality, love, and beauty. Since this is a blog and the idea is to Say Something about the work we do and...

Superior Scaffold congratulates the Super Bowl LII champion Eagles!

February 5, 2018

by superiorscaffold

What an unbelievable game it was! And what a season this has been! I’ll admit I’m normally not a huge football fan but how can you not get fired up watching the Eagles overcome adversity and go on to win the Super Bowl! What made me an Eagles fan? Well, it started back in October with a special tour through the Link and an opportunity to meet resident badass, defensive end, Brandon Graham. https://youtu.be/msafVeGHaRc And it was his strip sack of Tom Brady that pretty much sealed the win! He’s a super nice guy and one heck of a player. And then we got a tour...

Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ Though the streams are swollen Keep them doggies rolling Rawhide Rain and wind and weather Hell bent for leather Wishing my girl was by my side All the things I'm missin’ Good victuals, love and kissin’ Are waiting at the end of my ride It’s our job at Superior Scaffold to keep things rollin’. What do I mean by that? Well, when you have a business smack in the middle of the busiest part of town and you have a complete restoration going on overhead – you don’t want anything to stop. You want to keep those sidewalks open for all of the pedestrian traffic possible. I will...

Forrest Theatre restoration makes the pages of Construction Today Magazine!

January 16, 2018

by superiorscaffold

There comes a time in every man's life when they reach the pinnacle of their career and this is it for Superior Scaffold's very own estimator, Pat McAndrew. The good people at the GBCA and Construction Today Magazine have published an article about one of his jobs! Admittedly, this is one really cool project. We've got scaffolding 5 stories high inside the Forrest Theater erected around the audience seats. We provided the painting and restoration crews with a work deck to access the entire perimeter and the ceiling. We also provided scaffold and access in the attic - above the plaster ceiling...

Multiple canopies at The Gallery Mall redevelopment, now known as the Fashion District Philadelphia

January 10, 2018

by superiorscaffold

Hailed as the epicenter of Center City’s revival back in 1977, The Gallery Mall is finally getting its recognition as the preeminent shopping experience in downtown Philadelphia. It opened to the tune of $105 million; big bucks back in the day. But forty years has gone by and with it so has the sheen and promises on this old structure. Jump forward to right now as three city blocks and roughly 1,000,000 square feet of redevelopment are occurring. And when it’s all said and done it will be the largest retail repositioning project in the region. Once called The Gallery Mall, developers...

Names can be deceiving. Canopy at Tattooed Mom on South Street

December 20, 2017

by superiorscaffold

Hey, I thought awesome here’s a post for all the Moms I know who are just dying to get tattoos for Christmas. ;) But I was in for a little surprise when I started digging. Seems it's not a tattoo parlor at all but one of Philly’s most instagrammed eating, drinking and gathering places. In terms of followers it's right up there with South Street’s Magic Gardens, the largest work from local mosaic artist Isaiah Zagar. Sorry all of you Moms who wanted Christmas ink but there are places down the street. All we knew was that we had to help...
