French Consulate, New York City
This elegant Fifth Avenue Italianate residence became home to the French Consulate in 1942. Great care has been taken to preserve the historic decoration and ornamental plaster details.
PROJECT DETAILS
John Canning & Co. conserved and restored several spaces in the historic French Consulate in NYC.
Work on the upper Fifth Avenue Italianate interior began with a paint and plaster analysis and conditions report with full scale mock-ups of selected designs.
Damaged plaster was repaired and new finishes were installed on all surfaces in the West Room, East Room, Stairwell, and Gallery.
