Mt. Airy Homes

Mt. Airy is the oldest public housing initiative in St. Paul. The original high-rise building was constructed in 1959, followed by two-story townhouses in 1965 and 1966. The townhouses and grounds were renovated between 1994 and 1997. Additional renovations and updates were begun in 2015.

Tough Tek Metals® was retained to provide security screens for the townhouses in a phased installation program. Five phases were completed with a total of 1,157 screens installed.
