Category: New Build, Office
This three-story, multi-colored brick and metal mixed-use office and retail building has evolved into a popular hub for workers and shoppers in community-oriented Englewood.
The first floor became retail space with the second and third floor used as standard office space.
We provided engineering services to assist in attaining a LEED Gold Certified building. This support included the “Fundamental Commissioning” process and energy modeling using the Trane Trace program.
The mechanical system incorporated an under-floor (UFAD) air distribution system, high efficiency domestic hot water heaters. The electrical system used a photovoltaic panel system to assist with electrical load shedding for the building.
According to the Building Owners and Managers Association International, “Class A” buildings are the “most prestigious buildings competing for premier office users with rents above average for the area. Buildings have high quality standard finishes, state of the art systems, exceptional accessibility and a definite market presence.
The LEED System is designed to rate new and existing commercial, environmental, institutional and high-rise residential buildings for environmental performance from a “whole building” perspective over a building’s lifecycle.
