The project doesn’t have any green bells and whistles - it mostly consists of the energy-efficiency features required to qualify for the DCEO energy grant plus a few low-cost, high-value features such as indoor bicycle parking, compact fluorescent lights in high-use areas, and low-flow plumbing fixtures. As the second, new construction, phase of the project nears construction, we’ll follow-up with another post discussing the slightly different approach there.

Other project team members include general contractor Tropic Construction, structural engineer Klein and Hoffman, mechanical and plumbing engineer Consolidated Consulting Engineers, McKay Landscape Architects, civil engineer Eriksson, and commissioning agent Hill Mechanical.
