Features include touchless building entry and elevator access, multiple measures to maintain healthy indoor air quality, a highly visible and wide stair to provide an alternative to elevator use, and individual gender-neutral bathrooms replace common restrooms in the tenant spaces. Additional building features include 277 on-site, below-grade parking spaces and a secure bicycle parking area. The building is being designed for LEED Gold certification, with solar panels on the roof, dedicated outdoor space for tenants, and 44,000-sqft of publicly accessible open space.
