SERENA STURM ARCHITECTS

This is one of the initial projects included in the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Existing Building Pilot Project which focuses on the adaptation of the LEED system for buildings undergoing additions or renovations. This project remodeled the second floor of the police headquarters. The rehabilitated space has new offices and workstations for detectives and administrative personnel. All mechanical, lighting and plumbing systems were upgraded. Environmental features include doors certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, task/ambient lighting for low lighting power densities, low environmental impact housekeeping, and recycled content materials including recycled airplane-glass tiles and 100% recycled gypsum board. This project is expected to yield LEED EB certification.
