W. L. Hall Company O'Shaughnessy Distillery Project Spotlight
The O’Shaughnessy Distilling Company, located at 600 Malcolm Ave SE, Minneapolis, MN 55414, is rapidly establishing itself as a prominent landmark in Minneapolis. Situated just off the University of Minnesota Campus, the renovated 30,000 SF warehouse building and a substantial addition now house a new distillery.
๏ปฟThe expansive space boasts two bars, a full kitchen, a private dining room, and an impressive 15,000 SF dedicated solely to whiskey-making.
By skillfully blending engineering with architectural design, the brand-new O’Shaughnessy Distilling Company building delivers a distinct and tailor-made experience perfectly suited to the distillery's needs and vision.
At the heart of the distillery's concept was offering visitors a complete sensory and educational experience. To achieve this goal, we collaborated with the Cunningham Group Architects and PCL Construction Services (Minneapolis District) design teams, utilizing interior glass systems to showcase the beautiful copper distilling equipment and enhance the overall visitor experience.
To enclose the all-glass sections of the building, W. L. Hall Company employed EFCO Storefront and curtain walls. Additionally, we created an open-air dining space that can be accessed through single doors on less favorable days, and seamlessly integrated with the indoor dining area on pleasant days.
As part of our interior work, W. L. Hall Company installed fire-rated framing to segregate the brewery equipment from the dining/bar area. We also incorporated custom glass handrails into the distillery and utilized custom mirrors as accent pieces behind the bars. In addition, we installed barn door sliders in the retail space to complement the overall design.
To define and distinguish the different entertainment spaces within the building, we installed interior storefronts, collaborating closely with the Cunningham Group, PCL Construction Services, and O'Shaughnessy teams. ๏ปฟTo ensure a seamless workflow and minimize disruptions, we provided weekly updates, allowing for any necessary rearrangements to be made with minimal impact on the project's progress.
W. L. Hall Company, in collaboration with EFCO, Old Castle Glass, and NanaWall, utilized our expertise in glass and glazing to fulfill the unique and diverse aesthetic, functional, and operational requirements of O'Shaughnessy's state-of-the-art, world-class distillery.
The remarkable O'Shaughnessy Distillery building showcases W. L. Hall Company's diverse capabilities, as demonstrated throughout this challenging and fulfilling project. Thanks to clear communication, timely scheduling, and end results, the Cunningham Group, PCL Construction, and O'Shaughnessy Distillery teams were pleased with our contributions.
