Framing contractors have completed installation of the storefront soffits at the Woolworth building, marking a key step in preparing the ground-floor façade for future storefront systems.

A continuous top soffit now runs the full length of the building, reinforcing the visual frame of the restored frontage. Crews also completed column framing and installed sheathing around each exposed vertical support, preparing for the next phase of installation.
