Walt Disney Family Museum
San Francisco, CA
Silverado performed the selective demolition on three historic buildings located on the old parade grounds in the Presidio of San Francisco.
Silverado first removed all non-historic interior walls, flooring and ceilings. The entire basement slab and some foundations were removed to make way for a new subbasement and underground theater. Extensive structural demolition was completed for the required seismic upgrades and many new openings in the brick walls were necessary.
Brick was salvaged and palletized onsite for later reuse at the project site. In addition historic wood paneling was cataloged and removed for refurbishment and reinstallation. Now completed the former army barracks buildings house a new state of the art museum highlighting the career of Walt Disney.
