Genesis of Minneapolis | Golden Valley, MN

Genesis of Minneapolis recently opened their brand new 22,500 sq. ft. dealership in Golden Valley, MN.​

The Challenge 

The Genesis building design required the specialized installation of the Oldcastle Reliance Casette Curtainwall system, which demands pre-glazing in the shop to streamline on-site installation. As a ground-up construction project, precise field measurements were essential to ensure a perfect fit. The building’s square design and transitional steps added complexity, requiring a subcontractor with advanced technical expertise and meticulous attention to detail.

Our Solution

Brin Glass Company was the ideal partner for this project, bringing extensive experience with the required curtainwall system and a trusted partnership with Oldcastle for seamless material sourcing. Our shop capacity allowed us to handle pre glazing, ensuring efficient installation. With our glazing expertise, we provided precise field measurements and collaborated closely on design feedback to ensure every detail was accurate and met expectations.

Results Accomplished

The completed project delivered a sleek, modern design that impressed both the client and our general contractor partner. Brin installed over 5,200 square feet of glass, including a custom three-leaf bi-fold door system for the showroom floor that serves as a standout feature.

Why was Brin Glass best suited for the work?
