In 15 years of business Allen Architectural Metals has been a constant supplier to the City of Chicago. Numerous designs have been created for street amenities and subway entrances. The State Street/ Chicago Street Red Line Subway Kiosk are fabricated with a steel frame structure and clad with delicately hand carved cast aluminum panels and trim. The master carver incorporated wheat and grasses that are native to the Chicago landscape into the design of the aluminum panels under the close direction of the architect. The finishing of these structures incorporates a high-end automotive paint with high contents of metallic and pearl. Allen Architectural Metals skillfully crafted these kiosk including the glass windows, glass roofing, hardware and gates.
