................AMERICAN SARDINE PROJECT (update)
About 2 months ago we blogged about the American Sardine bar in Point Breeze, and the green aspects of the work being done. Well today, we have an update shot of the installed awning. The weathered corrugated steel is originally installed as a typical corrugated silver colored metal. But as time passes and inclement weather ensues, the metal begins it's transformation. We took this shot to show one of the metal's color stages. Right now it is a bright orange but in a few weeks or months it will begin to change to a darker more rusty color. What happens in that time is that the steel's chemical composition begins to form a protective layer on its surface under the influence of the weather thus changing the color of the metal.
