ABOUT THE COVER

The Mississippi Aquarium features three main buildings clad in a distinctive, overlapping pattern of 16,000 diamond flat-lock wall tiles fabricated with more than 81,400 pounds of Type 1 Architectural Rolled SHG pre-patina blue-grey zinc. Flat-lock panels meet the project’s multiple performance requirements to stand up to flooding, high winds, fade, corrosion and rust in the hurricane-prone area.
