I would check Artie's Hardware on 14th Street -- they do oversized fire-escape window guards for lofts and might do this too.

Otherwise, ask Gothic Cabinet Craft -- you basically need a carpenter to build you a thin square frame and then staple screening material (available at all the major lumberyards) to it.

a few years ago I had custom screens made here for an apartment with big, oddly proportioned windows:

They were decent, and cheaper than anything I could find locally. (you need to measure carefully, though)
