The Crest at Galvez Plaza, a 65,000-lb, 35-ft-tall cantilevered steel sculpture, is part of a $900,000 revitalization project for the city of Baton Rouge. A steel mass of roughly 16,700 sq ft comprises the structure and supports lighting and sound equipment. Covered in stainless-steel cladding, each hollow section is triangular, and no side has the same measurement.
Arrighi Construction led work on the project, which went through multiple design iterations. The design consisted of a series of 14-ft-long segments paired with complex geometry on a simple skeletal frame, with longitudinal plates providing frame support. In June 2012, Kansas City Steel began fabricating the sections and delivering them to the site in the order of their planned erection.
