Story


Client Challenge
The challenge for this project was to create a world-class corporate headquarters while bringing life to a local landmark – the Ottawa Street Station which is situated on a brownfield site in the heart of Michigan’s capital city.  

TowerPinkster Solution
TowerPinkster partnered with HOK (Design Architect), Arup (Design Engineer), Quinn Evans (Historic Preservation), Fleis & Vandenbrink (Civil Engineering) and Carl Walker Inc. (Parking Structure) to design a world-class facility while respecting the historic character of the 1930’s Ottawa Street Station power plant and the unique setting of property.    
This facility contains 10 office floors, plus the conversion of the basement level into a parking structure which is specially designed to contain floodwaters in such an event. The new 106,000 SF addition is three stories, constructed above the 100-year floodplain with an atrium forming a gracious entry with views of the river. The building is now right-sized for projected growth with a capacity for 1,200. Functional aspects of the building include a service center, social spaces and meeting rooms to accommodate collaboration while maintaining an open-space environment and exposure to natural daylight. 
The building achieved LEED Gold certification for energy use, lighting, water and material use as well as incorporating a variety of other sustainable strategies.
