FlexStone™ Pavers "Win-Win" For Manhattan Terrace Project

The choice of FlexStone™ pavers as a component of a recent renovation project at a Manhattan landmark building was a "win-win" situation for both client and specifier, according to Don Sussman, president of Town and Garden, Ltd., a well-known New York landscape design/build firm.

Sussman said a number of surfacing products were considered for use on the 12th floor terrace outside the offices of Two Rivers Group Holdings' offices on Fifth Avenue. However, because of strict building code requirements, the irregular shape of the terrace and other considerations, FlexStone pavers, manufactured by Kamway Incorporated, were the clear choice.

FlexStone pavers were key to turning this unattractive roof space into the beautiful outdoor meeting area overlooking 5th Avenue in Manhattan shown in top photo.

"FlexStone pavers met all practical and aesthetic requirements of the project including light weight, broad availability of colors and finish and the fact that the pavers do not obstruct drainage," Sussman said, also noting that the pavers are easily moved and reinstalled to give access to the deck underlayment for inspection and maintenance.

Sussman has worked with Kamway Incorporated on the surfacing aspects of numerous projects for nearly a decade.

"Kamway has always been able to come up with solutions to the challenges we present," Sussman said.

Kamway Incorporated manufactures FlexStone pavers and distributes a number of other surfacing products from its headquarters location in College Point, New York.
