Harral Security Wheeler/Downtown North Bridgeport

1955 ~ 2016
Beinfield Architecture collaborated with Spinnaker Real Estate and Viking Construction on the Harral Security Wheeler building in Downtown North Bridgeport.
The Harral Security Wheeler development is a historic preservation and adaptive reuse of a former office building that dates to 1904.  It has been converted to residential use with street level retail and office space.
Located in the heart of downtown Bridgeport, it is walk-able to transit, restaurants, hotels, banks and attractions.
Uncovered during the redevelopment were several surprises, including an elaborate pattern engraved in cast iron around the main entrance of the building. The pattern had been hidden in a 1970s-era renovation.
