Beautifying York

Matt created this piece for the city of York as part of a citywide beautification project for the downtown area of York, PA.

The wood used to create this piece was crafted from salvaged Pine floor joists taken from a local school stage that had been torn down and discarded.  To achieve the “butcher block” styling Matt had to cut and taper the ends and hand sand the pieces for 2 weeks to create its beautiful design.

This wood cut-off bench is located and appreciated every day in the heart of downtown York on N Beaver St near the Beaver St/Market St intersection.
