Project highlights
Their challenge
Nestled in one of the city’s most diverse neighborhoods, City Hyde Park’s second floor needed an update to bring it up to part with the rest of the chic tower it occupied. Our clients needed an engineering partner that could provide design services to accommodate their unique, flexible layout and functional requirements for this office renovation.
Our solution
Salas O’Brien provided resources for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems design for this 12,100-square-foot office renovation. In line with our client’s needs, our design included system updates like a new fire suppression system and a 24-hour cooling system for the IT room and other various support spaces. Our design also featured a virtual office space, a reception area, individual private offices, co-working and conference rooms, meeting rooms, toilet rooms, a pantry, a business lounge, and huddle areas.
The results
Thanks to our team’s work, this finished space is now well equipped to meet our client’s needs as a business office space in Chicago. With modernized facilities and systems, our client can continue to provide flexible workplace solutions for businesses of any size.
