This 86 ft. high x 265 ft. long curving glass façade serves as the grand entry to Surrey Central City. The lower glazed facade is supported by a series of 24 inch diameter Parallam columns. These columns support tapered Parallam arms reaching out to provide restraint for horizontal Parallam muntins, which carry the glazing. Vertical muntin loads are then carried at each facet point by spring loaded stainless steel cables.
