The Roshek Building is a 1930’s era, nine-story, 300,000 square foot building that underwent mechanical, plumbing and electrical renovations and is a LEED Platinum certified building.
The first level has commercial and retail tenants. Renovations to the lower levels took place while the spaces are occupied. IBM uses floors 5 through 9 as a technology service center.
Plumbing system design included new water and waste risers, replacement of toilet room fixtures with water conserving fixtures (dual flush water closets and 1/8 gallon per flush urinals), and new domestic water pressure booster system.
The lighting design utilized super T8 lamps with electronic ballast for general area lighting with LED exit lights. The lighting design provided for efficient lighting while maintaining historic accuracy of fixtures. The building utilizes Square D power logic meters to monitor the main MDPs, with separate metering for each tenant space. The heating, ventilating and air conditioning system is separately monitored for each tenant. The Square D Powerlogic tenant metering package is used for tenant sub-metering monitoring and tenant billing.
