Francisco Rivera does windows. Salvadoran immigrant honored as tops in the world by international trade group

“If you’ve peered through a terminal window at Washington Dulles International Airport to finally see that eagerly awaited jetliner, or if you’ve caught a stunning glimpse of the National Mall from a Senate office window, or if you have just watched mockingbirds play outside from your Bethesda apartment, chances are pretty good that Francisco Rivera has made your day.

Rivera was the top window cleaner in the world last year, according to the International Window Cleaning Association of Alexandria, Va., a trade group with more than 650 member companies from more than 25 countries, according to its Web site.”
