Alberici Constructors converted a 50-year-old manufacturing facility into “class-A” office space for its parent company, Alberici Corporation.
The design of the project called for removing a 70-foot-wide, 485-foot-long section from the middle of the existing 2-story warehouse. This virtually sliced the building into two parts. With an outdoor courtyard in the gap, one side was converted to covered parking to replace the heat-absorbing asphalt on the site and the other side was renovated for open, sun-lit office space.
The project incorporates the following environmentally friendly features:
- Recycling portions of the existing building that were demolished to eliminate landfill materials.
- Addition of operable clerestories for ventilation and atriums for natural light, reducing the need for artificial light.
- Raised floor construction in office areas with floor vents for individually controlled warm and cool air distribution.
- Energy-efficient mechanical systems that reduce energy consumption.
There are only a handful of projects that have earned LEED Platinum, and we are confident we have constructed a building that will foster the inspiring, open and collaborative working environment we want for employees, while conserving energy, the environment and resources.
