A spacious lobby with a 27-ft clear height welcomes visitors to this 32-story tower—conveniently located near Union Station and the Central Business District—offering 720,000 ft² of office space, ground-level retail, a plaza, and below-grade parking. MKA’s innovative design utilized high-strength column steel, 60% stronger than conventional steel, to save 275 tons of column steel and reduce fabrication and erection costs. The system creates 10 terraces extending from the building’s facade and “cutouts” at two corners to produce six corner offices on multiple floors. Transfer trusses three stories deep improve the ground-level plaza’s openness and introduce circulation efficiency in the parking garage. An “up-up” construction sequence also saved six weeks of construction time by allowing below-grade levels and the tower to be constructed simultaneously.
