We have been proud to partner with @FieldOperations on several phases of Brooklyn’s acclaimed Domino campus, the most recent of which is their design for #DominoSquare. The modern simplicity of our Que tree grates, juxtaposed with the timeless appeal of their raw cast iron construction, makes them an ideal choice for the site’s #RefinedIndusrial aesthetic.

Decorative bollards go beyond function to enhance the built environment. @Land_Expressions chose our Spak #bollards for their beautiful renovation of Huntington Park on the #Spokane River, then took it up a notch by powder coating one of the inner loops red ⭕ to match other project design components. #DesignInspiration #StreetArt

We love the lush look of this outdoor garden and courtyard, designed by @UrbanRobotAssociates for al fresco dining at Parisian-style brasserie @Pastis_Miami. The sculpted, flowing lines of our #castiron Kelp tree grates add to the space’s organic energy while providing ADA-compliant tree protection.
By adding 🌴 trees and 🌿 greenery, landscape designers not only create a unique atmosphere that enhances the restaurant's brand and ambiance but also show a commitment to sustainability and the well-being of their guests.

⏳ #AgingGracefully ⏳ #CastIron grates with surface dimension become even more beautiful over time—especially when installed in areas with significant foot traffic. The high points of the pattern become “burnished”, providing a pleasing contrast to the more recessed areas of the grate.

Here’s a look at Dr. Maya Angelou Lane, the main street of San Francisco’s newly-developed #MissionRock waterfront community. This curb-less, pedestrian-priority shared public zone includes a one-way travel lane with #DetectableWarningSurfaces to indicate to pedestrians that they are crossing into a vehicular area. We collaborated on this custom #castiron version with @CMGsite, one of many elements both thoughtfully and artfully designed for this vibrant addition to the #MissionBay neighborhood.

🌳 #UrbanTrees 🌳 are essential for creating healthier, more sustainable, and more livable communities.
That’s why, on a recent site visit to Walmart’s 350-acre Home Office Campus (currently under construction in #Bentonville AR), we were excited to see so many street trees protected by our Rain tree grates as part of the “Big Nature” landscape master plan by @SWAgroup Los Angeles.

✨ The homeowner who took these “before” and “after” images was so pleased once he installed his new grates that he found it “hard to believe for 29 years we lived with their plastic predecessors.”
✨ So why wait when it’s this easy and cost-effective to transform your drainage from an eyesore to a decorative focal point? Our cast metal grates are not only beautifully handcrafted, but they have also been engineered to fit the most widely available channels.
✨ There is a wide range of pattern options (including our Argo shown here) to complement your design efforts and the materials of the surrounding surfaces/landscape.

This mountain of scrap metal, one of many located in the yard of one of our partner foundries, is #sustainability personified!
♻️ Recycling and Reuse: Foundries extensively recycle scrap metal and defective castings. Metal can be melted down and reused repeatedly without losing its properties, reducing the need for new raw materials and minimizing waste.
🌎 Resource Efficiency: Foundries reduce the demand for virgin ores by using recycled metals. This helps conserve natural resources and reduces the environmental impact associated with mining and raw material extraction.
💲 Circular Economy: Foundries turn scrap metal and waste products back into valuable materials. This approach supports sustainability by creating a closed-loop system.
Iron Age is proud of our role in repurposing these materials, bringing beautiful, designer-cast metal grates and site furnishings to life.
Shout-out to our estimator, @Mr_DiegoZ, for providing a sense of scale to this massive mound of metal!

While traveling to speak with design firms across this beautiful country of ours, Iron Age president Mark Armstrong loves to check in on local area project installations. On his latest trip to #SantaBarbara, he swung by @PaseoNuevoSB and found our Interlaken grates looking just as good as they did when they were installed back in 2020!
