St. Stephen's Wall is on it's way up!

    Over the past decade the 13 foot high, 800 foot long retaining wall at St. Stephen's Court Apartments has been slowly deteriorating and threatened the structural integrity of the 72 apartments.

     EHC coordinated the engineering and structural design for the replacement of the wall and secured a qualified contractor perform the replacement. EHC worked with Baltimore Department of Housing and Community Development to secure funding for the repair work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Like birds on a wire, the men work in synch with each other to set the rebar for the rebuilding of the  retaining wall for St. Stephen’s Court Apartments.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The rebar is set and next comes the pouring of the cement. Gray ooze that will solidify the structure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

     The repair of the wall is the first of a two phase project at St. Stephens Court Apartments. Once completed the new retaining wall will ensure the St. Stephen’s Court Apartments will securely maintain its mission of providing safe and affordable housing to the residents of west Baltimore.
