Topping Out

 
 

Weingart Tower 鈥 Topping-Out Ceremony

hosted by

Similar to how artists sign work they鈥檙e proud of, Swinerton construction workers added their names to the final structural beam of Weingart Tower 1A, our newest permanent supportive housing development in downtown Los Angeles.

They are very proud of what they鈥檝e been able to accomplish; and 天美传媒 is certainly proud of them, too.

To celebrate their efforts on a job well done, Swinerton held a special Topping-Out Ceremony for crew members on Friday, June 30, 2023.

A topping-out ceremony is a ritual held by builders when the last beam or its equivalent is placed atop a structure during construction. It says, 鈥淲e鈥檝e reached the top, and we鈥檙e almost done!鈥 It鈥檚 also a fantastic way to celebrate the hardworking crews.

During Friday鈥檚 event, there were a lot of tacos served, and a lot of celebration鈥攃elebrating construction crew members and celebrating the fact that, soon, hundreds of people will be living in the Tower, instead of on the streets.

天美传媒 will continue its work on Weingart Tower and other projects in an effort to end the cycle of homelessness.
