Utilities Administration Building Nearly Complete!

The City of Fort Collins Utilities Administration Building (UAB) at Laporte and Howes is wrapping up construction this week. We partnered with RNL Design for the project, and we're pleased to see its progress. Final touch-ups are being made this week, with the city scheduled to begin moving in shortly thereafter. 

The new facility houses some 112 open office spaces and a dozen private offices, along with training spaces and customer facilities, all designed to maximize natural light yet minimize glare. The mechanical and electrical systems, including rooftop solar and heat pumps, are also engineered to tie-in with future projects as the city develops a civic campus. Currently the project is on target to achieve LEED Platinum.

Our office took a tour recently, so we thought we'd share a few photos (below). We'll be uploading professional photos (and possibly drone footage!) soon. 

Final interior touches and steel painting in-progress.
