A soap brick is a real brick that is cut in half and cast into the panel (in lieu of using a thin brick). While this is more costly than using thin bricks, it does provide a much more \u201creal brick\u201d appearance. The brick panels were aggressively panelized to create window units in lieu of a stick built panelization. The panel joints were hidden nicely within the rowlock bonding pattern.\u00a0The traditional precast was equally difficult. The finish was a buff acid-etch and the profile were dramatic, practically the upper cornice.<\/p>\n<p>This was far from an easy project, but one that everyone at Arban &amp; Carosi is very proud to have completed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Architect: Davis Carter Scott\/Pickard Chilton Joint Venture Owner: Crescent Reality General Contractor: James G.
