This building will include primarily open office area for approximately 220 existing Ames personnel that will be relocated to the facility. The building is comprised of two separate wings, two (2) stories each with mechanical penthouses on the roofs. In addition to the open office space, the building includes a glass wall atrium, accessible restrooms, a lunchroom, elevator, and mechanical/electrical support areas. Construction also includes complete heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems utilizing ground source heat pumps, electrical and data communications to support the building operations, photovoltaic power and solar hot-water systems, fire detection and suppression systems, an advanced lighting system, and security systems. The construction project also includes site preparation and site utilities; installation of approximately 60 geothermal wells, new roadways and parking, California native landscaping, hardscaping, and the development of a site storm water management system. Period of performance is 18 months after receipt of the notice to proceed. Estimated construction cost is over $10 million.
