Review: March 2009 Meeting at Robert Morris University Please click here to see photos of the March 2009 meeting at Robert Morris University Does Anyone Remember This Project? Does anyone remember the designing and fabricating large stainless steel panels (4' x 8': Allegheny Ludlum, in partnership with Trio Industries) that comprise the exterior and interior facades of the Center for British Art at Yale University, designed by Louis Kahn? The project took place in 1973 and 1974, approximately. Any information into how these panels were made (especially the surface finish) would be very helpful for a current restoration project. Please contact Michael Morris at (646) 623-9896, or Michael.Morris@metmuseum.org.
