Abbot's small projects division completed restoration of the façade of a five-story brick warehouse building at 61-63 Wareham St. in the historic South End. After the building began to experience water penetration issues, the building owner elected to install new bronze replacement windows in an effort to control the problem. Because the replacement windows did not eliminate all of the water penetration, the owner contacted Abbot to recaulk the replacement windows and repoint the entire building façade. Abbot cut all of the mortar joints to a depth of ½" and repointed the façade. Significantly, with new mortar was formulated to comply with the South End Landmark District Commission regulations.
