While the landmarked shell remains, additional mezzanine levels wereadded to the interior, increasing the overall area to 55,000 square feet. The renovationrestores original features and introduces skylights in order to maximize and harvest naturaldaylight into the space. Glass partitions increase the visual transparency and allow lightto filter throughout the offices and workstations. Breakout and gathering spaces providespace for informal meetings and group working sessions. Conference rooms and commonareas balance the public/private aspect of the program.
