How did the building's team work together to address sustainability and building performance?
As the Construction Manager, Landau was able to collaborate with the architect/owner to establish a target budget, work within this budget and order long lead items before construction began to maintain schedule.
What were major challenges in the project related to building performance and how did the project team work to overcome them?
The Wheatley Center was formerly a U-shaped building. The design for the new facility required Landau Building Company to remove the bottom portion of the “U” and construct a three-story, 33,000 SF infill structure between the existing wings. These existing wings were structurally connected to the new building and received complete interior renovations.
