What was the purpose of this project? What did the client request?

The restaurant owner wanted to protect his outdoor dining customers from the elements such as rain storms and high winds, but keep the open dining atmosphere. Having an outdoor canopy would allow for more seating and additional revenue during all seasons. The main entrance canopy sidewalls provide a great vestibule in the winter months.

What is unique or complex about the project?

The shape and design of the canopy that wraps around the front entrance of the restaurant makes it a very unique attraction to drive by traffic.

What were the results of the project?

The owner continues to receive complements and increased reservations from customers! In addition, the client requested enclosure sidewall panels to be installed. That resulted in year-round seating capacity for the restaurant.
