Benjamin O. Davis Jr. Cadet Barracks
West Point Military Base, NY
Acranom Masonry is pleased to present its work at the New Cadet Barracks, West Point, New York. The new 6 story building includes over 200,000 sq./ft. of granite stone and cast stone material. The granite stone is built using the New World Stone System with Cold Spring Granite Co. This unique system of installation is controlled as each individual stone is pre-numbered and located on drawings for its own position in the finished wall. Also the stone is prepared in pallets stacked in sequence top to bottom for the most efficient productivity on installation.
West Point officially named this building after General Benjamin O. Davis Jr., one of its first African-American graduates and a brilliant military pioneer who overcame segregation.
Walsh Construction, the General Contractor of this major project, and AMI worked hard to pull this building together. The teamwork and positivity experienced by all was incredible. A job well done, and an award we can all be proud of.
