As Philadelphia's first major office high-rise in more than 10 years, the Cira Centre adds an impressive contemporary element to the city's historic architecture. Developed by famed architect Caesar Peli, the 436', 28-story building is sheathed in glass, contrasting with the limestone exterior of the neighboring 30th Street Station. The skyscraper offers a state-of-the-art office and conference center, modern restaurant/lounge, and a fitness center.

Well suited for high profile architectural commercial properties such as the Cira Centre, the 8900 Series conforms to the requirements of ANSI A156.4 Grade 1 and delivers the perfect combination of durability, reliability and appearance.
