Drytek Helps Transform Signature Philadelphia Landmark
The Ayer Building, constructed in the early 20th century, recently under went a complete renovation that included space for luxury apartments and retail space. And Drytek was there.
The goal of the project was to develop a modern setting for business and day to day living while preserving the façade and original features of the building including Egyptian-style sculptures, reliefs and pressed metal work, as well as The Ayer's landmark bronze doors.
An intimate and exclusive residence, The Ayer's 56 high-end condominiums - including four penthouses - feature expansive floor plans, high ceilings and large windows with spectacular, panoramic views of the square, the river and the city. The Ayer stands alone in quality and detail with exquisite interior selections including slates from the finest quarries in England and Portugal; quarter-sawn hardwood floors from the United States; and the ultimate in German made kitchens.
Drytek 7200, the industry's most innovative self leveling cement, was expertly applied throughout the building by a leading area contractor. With millions of square feet of experience under its belt and a focus on substrate preparation and leveling, Surface Specialists, LLC was a natural choice for the job.
According to president Tim Fahey, "We chose Drytek 7200 because of the complexity of the project. We also knew we could count on the high level of service by Drytek's technical field representatives. This means a great deal to our company as we want to stay focused on getting things done on time and done right."
One-, two- and three-bedroom residences are available with views of all sides of the city and the square. One-bedroom residences start at $870,000 and penthouses start at $3.9 million. The property is 70 percent sold.
