Chanen's goal as construction manager for this nine-story office building with two sub-basements was to create an attractive, cost effective structure that would meet the Department's advanced electronic requirements.

Scheduling was a critical factor in order to accommodate the Department's desired occupancy date. A floor was completed every eight working days under an aggressive concrete schedule. The project was completed ahead of schedule and within budget. Department personnel began occupying the building two months early.

The $15 million, 200,000-sq.-ft. building has a number of special features to improve efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and enhance appearance. For example, the cooling tower for the building's mechanical system is built as an architectural waterfall. A high-technology data center for processing tax returns and a fiber optic trunk system, which speed voice and data communications throughout the building, is also incorporated into the design.

The lobby is one of the few areas of the building open to the public. Durability is key in this area. A sophisticated security plan was developed to protect sensitive data and to safeguard valuables. A covered walkway connects the building to an adjacent 530-space above-grade, open parking structure.
