Supreme Court West Façade Restoration
Beginning May 2012 the U.S. Supreme Court Building's West Front Façade will undergo a complete restoration to address deterioration due to age, weather and nature.
The scaffold is wrapped in a scrim enclosure printed with a full-size photograph of the building’s façade – a practice that is used extensively in Europe. As work is completed on the north and south portions of the façade, the scaffold will be partially removed.
