Fort Snelling
AMR joined in the preservation of these iconic buildings at Historic Fort Snelling. This project was directly on the walking path of the main fort. Our professionals worked around hundred’s of tourists daily doing their best to limit disruption of their experience. Paint covering the stone sills had to be removed without damaging the stone or surrounding brick. The replacement bricks were custom made in three shades to match the building as needed.
