Nelson- Atkins Museum of Art

Renovation and restoration of the Kansas City Sculpture Park at the Nelson-Atkins Museum occurred along side the construction of the new Bloch Building completed in 2007. Hoffman Cortes worked with Carthage Marble to restore this well known and loved area of the Museum.

Hoffman Cortes performed the restoration work on the plaza area, zipper walkway and steps. The original black granite had cracked and fallen apart. Hoffman Cortes and Carthage Marble partnered to find and install pieces that matched the original granite in order to recreate the plaza area and walkways.
