We assisted the Owner with their pre-construction needs including coordinating designers for the facility, budgeting the project, and obtaining bid packages. Our scope of work included building the shell and fitting up the 7000 SF first floor interior for an optometry office. This two-story building is constructed as a wood-framed shell with steel columns and beams supporting the second-floor system. This allows for an open floor plan on the first floor which will house the optometry offices. A full-service elevator provides ADA compliant access to the second-floor tenant space(s).

  • The design and construction included these efficiency-related features:
  • A combination of spray foam insulation in the wall cavities and rigid polystyrene insulation in the exterior walls
  • High-efficiency natural gas-fired furnaces with high-efficiency remote condensers for cooling
  • Heat recovery ventilators to provide fresh air ventilation and to re-capture waste heat
  • Fixtures designed for the conservation of water
  • A high-efficiency boiler for domestic water and for hydronic heat at the vestibules and stairwells
  • Dimmable LED lights for all ceiling fixtures and dispensary display areas
