About
Greyhound Bus Company
Greyhound is a venerable name in the history of American
transportation. With hundreds of terminals around the country Greyhound
buses are celebrated in the movies and American literature. Greyhound
remains one of the quickest and more restful ways to travel from city
to city.
Their Need
Their existing structure in downtown Pittsburgh was nearing the end of
its life. Greyhound wanted a temporary building with which to continue
to serve its customers while a new, larger facility was constructed.
The building, however, had to be large, provide ample security, and
endure the hundreds of travelers who would pass through each day.
Our Solution
Greyhound chose to partner with Damon Pross of Williams Scotsman and
Whitley to build the 16-module, 11,000 square foot facility with food
service, ceramic lavatories, baggage storage area and offices, all
designed for the demands of high traffic and the need to minimize
maintenance . The project took only five months to complete. Security
sprinkler systems we installed, as well as multiple doorways to load
and unload many buses simultaneously. The Whitley “clear
span” modules allowed a wide-open grand hall which was
complimented by a front wall in commercial glass. |
