LAUDERDALE-BY-THE-SEA
EL MAR RESTROOM BUILDING
AND PLAZA
This project was designed to provide the Town with much needed public restrooms, additional parking and an open gathering space to serve both beachgoers and downtown, business patrons.
The project faced the challenge of being designed and constructed to be as maintenance-free and vandal resistant as possible, and at the same time use only roducts that did not contain any corrosion-prone iron due to the proximity to the ocean.
SCEC, as Construction Manager, and the Design team were able to use a combination of standard and custom products to meet the challenges, including stainless steel structural columns, custom aluminum louvers, porcelain light fixtures, and fiberglass doors. The result is an artistic restroom building in a park setting with a long service life.
