26 Federal Plaza, Light Reflection Masts

The reflection light masts consist of three independent heliostat fabrications integrated into the redesign of 26 Federal Plaza, facing Foley Square.

Tripyramid worked directly with the artist to construct a series of undulating mirror composite panels into the top of a custom two-part aluminum mast. Tripyramid also worked with the architect’s electrical consultant to integrate conduit and cables for both power and data for one wind meter and two surveillance cameras per mast. Each mast required Tripyramid to specify a fabrication and erection methodology so the installer could accurately orient the mast within the site to appropriately redirect sunlight to various landscape features around the plaza.
