Imperial Crane on-site at the historic Hotel Baker
At the site of the historic Baker Hotel in St Charles IL, Imperial Crane was hired to assist with removing the existing flagpole assembly which was actually a cell tower disguised to look like a flagpole. To maintain the building’s landmark status with the National Register of Historic Places, a new flagpole was installed in keeping with the original installation dating back to the original construction in 1928.
