Fiberglass Windows Offer Performance and Style at Miamiville Trailyard

At first glance, Miamiville Trailyard is all about vibe: a blackened wood exterior, towering glass gables and a sprawling patio filled with string lights, firepits and live music. But behind the aesthetic is a high-performance building envelope designed to handle Ohio’s weather swings, daily foot traffic and long-term operation—all while keeping energy bills and maintenance needs in check.

That’s where Pella Impervia® fiberglass windows came in.

From the massive, two-story glass wall that anchors the dining room to the operable casements along the building’s sides, Impervia delivered the structural strength, thermal control and architectural edge needed to bring Platte Architecture’s vision to life.

Whether it’s a quiet weekday lunch or a packed summer concert night, the Trailyard sees constant use and heavy environmental exposure. Pella Impervia windows, made from a proprietary fiberglass composite, are up to the task.

Five times stronger than wood, twice as strong as vinyl, Impervia frames resist warping, expansion and weathering—critical for large-format units like those used in the Trailyard’s front gable.

The powder-coated black finish is baked into the frame material, offering fade resistance and eliminating the need for refinishing or repainting.

Impervia’s low thermal expansion ensures tight seals and stable performance across Cincinnati’s seasonal shifts—helping avoid seal failure and air leaks that lead to callbacks.

For commercial contractors, that means less maintenance, better long-term performance and peace of mind on warranty and code compliance.

More than a design feature, the full-height glass wall acts as an experience driver—connecting the indoor bar and dining space to the lively outdoor patio. Impervia’s narrow sightlines and uniform black profiles give the Trailyard a clean, contemporary look while maximizing visibility and daylight.

Inside, the dual-pane Low-E insulating glass regulates interior temperatures without sacrificing light—keeping the building bright and welcoming without overloading the HVAC system.

And because the units were delivered on schedule and pre-sized to spec, install crews were able to set even the largest gable-end units without extra site adjustments or costly delays.

At Miamiville Trailyard, the windows aren’t just architectural accents—they’re part of the brand experience. They invite in the landscape, reflect the energy of the space and deliver lasting performance with minimal upkeep.

With Pella Impervia, Platte Architecture and Linked Solutions were able to give the Trailyard its bold look without compromising on durability or efficiency. Whether you're building a new hospitality venue or retrofitting a high-traffic space, Impervia brings strength, speed and style to the job.
