King Street Station Ornamental Plaster Restoration
King Street Station Ornamental Plaster Restoration
10/27/20124:10

EverGreene Architectural Arts is responsible for the station ornamental plaster restoration work. All of the work is done on site. Numerous methods are being used to create different ornamental details. The primary goal is to create all of the molds necessary to cast new plaster details for section replacement; rather than cumbersome and time consuming repair patches. Mold forms sometimes have to be created from scratch when an original piece is not available. Other times a large removed original section with damages could be repaired prior to mold casting. Molds can also be made directly on an original piece in place. The ultimate goal is to create a rubber mold to use for future plaster replications.
