This historic building in the heart of Austin, Texas is getting a new lease on life, thanks in part to a Maeda MC285 Mini Crane.
The building, which was built in 1898 and declared a Texas historic landmark in 1994 by the Texas Historical Commission, has undergone some major renovations to remodeled accommodate new office space.
As part of the project, Austin Iron was brought in to replace the buildings structural steal beams.
They chose the MC285 because it was small enough to work inside the confined space of the building’s basement, yet powerful enough to lift and hold the massive steel beams in place.
