UTILITY RISERS AKA ‘CANDY CANES’

The Utility Risers for all systems have been set in each mega-column.  The Utility Risers, AKA ‘Candy Canes,’ bundles various utilities from the Rotunda to the Exhibit Level within each mega-column.  The ‘Candy Canes’ were lowered by crane in through the tops of the mega-columns.  Shout out to Linbeck and The Brandt Companies!
