DAMAGED GLASS PANELS BEING REPLACEDThe local media reports that this year 48 glass panels at the Port Theatre are being replaced at a cost of about $200,000. It is further reported that this is only half of the required replacements and an addtional 48 will be replaced next year. That cost is not reported.
Apparently concrete leaching from the buildings exterior is etching the glass panels and causing them to fail according to Ian Blackwood manager of parks maintenance and construction.
The orginal company which supplied the glass is no longer in business, however the glass was no longer under warranty.
It was not clear if the fault lies with the glass or the fact the leaching from the concrete is not being redirected away from the glass.
