Niagara Mohawk Building – Syracuse NY Project Overview

The Niagara Mohawk Building is a classic Art Deco landmark in Syracuse, New York. Built in 1932 as the headquarters of the nation’s largest electric utility, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2010. Metal Man Restoration was hired to clean all the exterior aluminum and stainless steel trim across the building’s elaborate facade, which had not been cleaned since the 1970s.

The Problem

The aluminum and stainless steel trim wrapping the facade was structurally sound but had gone decades without cleaning. Built-up dirt and grime dulled the metal’s detail and, left unchecked, could accelerate corrosion.

The Solution

Working from suspended scaffolding around the entire building, Metal Man Restoration cleaned every aluminum and stainless steel element and sealed each surface with a protective wax coating to guard against further corrosion. The multi-month effort restored the brilliance of the facade’s metalwork and helped preserve one of Syracuse’s signature historic landmarks.
