Legacy Union is a 10-acre, mixed-use development between Tryon Street and Bank of America Stadium that will will be home to a mix of Class A office space, retail and other development.
The first phase of Legacy Union features a 33-story office tower of stone and glass, set for completion in the first quarter of 2019. A glass-and-steel pyramid will cap the building, making it a landmark on the Charlotte skyline.
Galvan Industries was chosen to protect the beauty and integrity of the steel used in the tower’s roof-top pyramid. Hundreds of tons of uniquely designed structural steel elements were were carefully dipped in molten zinc in Galvan’s large galvanizing kettle. The result is a lustrous finish and protection against rust and corrosion that will last a lifetime, even in constant exposure to the elements.
“Galvan is happy to be involved in this skyline-changing project,” said Laurens Willard, president of Galvan Industries, Inc. “We’re proud to be a part of making and keeping Charlotte beautiful.”
