Structural steel in Lowell, Massachusetts

Historic mill complexes, university work and triple-decker housing along the Merrimack.

Platinum Structural Steel provides structural steel installation in Lowell, Massachusetts. Lowell is a mill-conversion market first and everything else second. The city's defining buildings — the huge brick and heavy-timber complexes along the Merrimack and the canals — keep being re-invented as housing, offices and institutional space, and each conversion needs real steel.

Platinum Structural Steel provides structural steel installation in Lowell, Massachusetts. Around the mills sits the state's classic triple-decker stock, with the same basement girder and lally column problems we see in Boston, plus university projects at UMass Lowell that run on academic calendars.
