A Birdair constructed 11,000 square foot porte-cochere will soon welcome guests to the Empire City Casino at Yonkers Raceway in Yonkers, New York. The material selected for the drop-off canopy is ETFE, or ethylene tetrafluoroethylene, a transparent film that is lightweight, flexible and sustainable. ETFE will cover a steel lattice shell to create a dramatic sculptural entrance canopy.
