A story from Sherryʼs
TWENTY-FIVE years ago when Sherry’s Hotel was
built, it was one of the show places of the great Metropolis. It had the best of everything in its construction. It had Bridgeport Brass Pipe thruout.
Changes in the times so affected the business of this world-famous restaurant and the money value of the site on which it was located, that the building was sold to the Guaranty Trust Company, who remodeled it into its present form for banking purposes.
During the remodeling, the pipe along with other con
structional elements was carefully scrutinized to determine whether or not it should be replaced. The Bridgeport Brass Pipe was found to be as good as new. The lengths that had been removed were re-installed and the pipe built back into the remodeled structure.
After more than 20 years of service Bridgeport Brass Pipe was as good as the main structural elements of the building; it will last as long or longer.
This is a story worth remembering when building
plans are under consideration.
