Improved Levee & Trail

Why was a natural metal surface selected instead of a painted coating for the exposed sheet pile wall?

A natural metal surface was selected for a number of reasons: Over time, a painted metal surface will exhibit ‘weeping’ through the coating, leading to streaking and staining of the wall surface, and requiring frequent paint touch-ups to maintain a uniform appearance. New paint over existing sun-worn paint can look uneven and splotchy A natural metal surface will age nicely and wear more uniformly
