OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT Cascading covering The project was a multistory outdoor structure for a hotel directly above the falls of the Cuyahoga River. The customer wanted to replace an old seasonal stationary awning that covered an outdoor bar and restaurant with a larger, year-round structure. The hotel is right on the Riverwalk and hosts a variety of events from kayak races to parties and weddings. The client wanted all the seating levels to be protected yet didn't want to block the view of the river from underneath. The complexity in this project is that it covers a three-elevation terrace over the existing bar. With a 41-foot-wide x 50-foot-high footprint, the awning drops 16 feet from the peak to the lower front by the river. The structure allows for river viewing and helps block the western setting sun. The customer is delighted with the attractive, functional and protected space that enhances the hotel's offerings by the river. IAA INTERNATIONAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS Ohio Awning & Mfg. Co.
