The flagpole at Acuity in Sheboygan (“The largest flag in the U.S. flies thanks to Wisconsin companies,” Marketplace, March 18) is being modified after substantial swaying was observed April 8.
The 338-foot pole, designed by Barr Engineering and installed by Oscar J. Boldt Construction, swayed during 10-mph winds that morning, although it reportedly did not sway in much stronger winds later that day. The pole is built to withstand speeds of 100 mph.
Once the work is complete in May, a 7,200-square-foot 300-pound U.S. flag will fly from the flagpole.
