Railings Make the Connection to Nature in this Upscale Mountain Retreat

The Eldred Preserve is a 3,000-acre property in the very heart of the Catskill Mountains. This magnificent renovation project included the addition of a boutique hotel, an on-site restaurant and lounge, along with a new event space. Designed by architecture firm Cooper Carry, and constructed by Myhren Builders, this “jewel in the woods” is a must-see retreat from the city.

An Adaptive Reuse Project in Buckhead Makes Its Mark

Originally built in the early 1950’s as post-war affordable housing, The Kimpton Sylvan Hotel is an adaptive reuse project artfully re-imagined into a boutique urban retreat with a distinctive mid-century modern design. Located in Atlanta’s elegant Buckhead area, the building was restored to its previous grandeur by the design team from SSOE | Stevens & Wilkinson. The crown jewel of this multiple award-winning hotel is the rooftop lounge, St. Julep’s.

DesignRail® Preserves the View in a Forest Wellness Retreat

A labor of love conceived of by former Silicon Valley executive Scott Kriens and his wife Joanie, 1440 Multiversity was created to help professionals build stronger connections in the world and to grow in relationship, spirit and wellness. DesignRail® with CableRail infill was specified for the balconies of a three-story lodge on the property.

“[Architect Jerry Yates] liked the clean, streamlined look of the railings and the way they complemented the modified Craftsmen style aesthetic while providing an unobstructed view of the surrounding area.”

Vintage Ambience for a Steamship-Styled Home

With its sleek, streamlined appearance, cable railing is sometimes thought best-suited for homes with a contemporary aesthetic. However, cable railing can work equally well with more traditional and formal architectural styles. Consider, for instance, a unique home built on a 60-foot bluff overlooking the Niantic River in Waterford, Connecticut. Perched atop the mile-wide river, the eye-catching home resembles a steamship from the 1920s.

“Feeney’s products are great for saltwater environments, and even better in freshwater applications. They won’t rust, peel or require painting, which provides peace of mind,” says long-time contractor Jonathan Laschever.

DesignRail® Helps Transform Waterfront into an Integral Part of the Local Community

The city of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin set out to revitalize the town’s waterfront, which would involve a significant overhaul of the existing public space, including replacing the railings at the perimeter of the shoreline and adding railings to a newly constructed t-shaped fishing pier. Challenges in selecting the new railing solution included the high level of moisture on the lakefront, which could cause the railings to degrade over time.

Feeney’s DesignRail® aluminum railing system with CableRail infill and LED lighting was the best solution for this prestigious project. “Feeney’s AAMA-2604 compliant powder coating process for aluminum and their stainless steel products are great for saltwater environments, even better in freshwater applications.”

A Facelift for the USS Arizona Memorial

With one of the most recognizable quotes in history, “December 7, 1941 – a date which will live in infamy,” Franklin D. Roosevelt brought the nation together in a time of despair and tragedy. The Pearl Harbor Memorial, comprised of the WWII Valor in the Pacific Monument; which includes the USS Arizona, USS Utah, and the USS Oklahoma memorials Battleship Missouri Memorial; USS Bowfin Sumarine Museum and Park; and the Pacific Aviation Museum recently celebrated its 75th anniversary by commemorating the 2,403 lives lost.

Gearing up for the big event, the USS Arizona Memorial underwent a renovation. More specifically, the Memorial’s exterior was one of the primary aspects of the project, including a new railing system.

Award-Winning Pedestrian and Bicycle-Only Bridge

The beautiful Phyllis J. Tilley Memorial Bridge is an important link in Fort Worth’s bicycle transportation system, spanning the Trinity River at Trinity Park. Completed in 2012, the bridge is a vital pedestrian and bicycle-only link between the banks of the Trinity River. It also provides downtown Fort Worth with pedestrian and bike access to popular museums located west of the Trinity River, including the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History, the Kimbell Art Museum and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth.

Modern Design in the Wine Country

SHED, a market, café and community gathering space located in Healdsburg, California, has celebrated the land, farming, food, art and culture of Northern Sonoma County since it opened in April of 2013. Designed by Jensen Architects of San Francisco, the SHED architectural style is a combination of modern and traditional design, incorporating prototypical farm building forms to bring to life a vison held dear by SHED co-owners Cindy Daniel and Doug Lipton to create, “…a stronger connection to the land and the food we eat.”

Sustainability Without Sacrificing Beauty

Challenged by restrictions imposed by the local Victorian Historic District and a personal goal of building a sustainable home within a strict budget, sustainability expert Tommy Linstroth and his team achieved sustainability without sacrificing beauty. Linstroth selected CableRail by Feeney railing infill for his new home located in the historic district of Savannah, Georgia; widely known as one of the most picturesque old-style residential districts in the southeast.

Beauty and Durability on a Grand Scale

Located in one of the most exquisite oceanfront settings of any of the Feeney, Inc. commercial DesignRail® installations, the Whaler Condominium Project on Ka’anapali Beach, Maui, Hawaii, presented a number of unique and complex staging, environmental and product design challenges. Feeney custom designed and manufactured the materials for the 16,000 linear feet of DesignRail® aluminum railing surrounding the balconies on each of the two 12-story residential condominium buildings during 2011 and 2012.
