CASE STUDIES

OfficeLinks
New York, New York

Challenge: OfficeLinks is a growing group of office business centers providing premiere officing facilities, state of the art technology and operational support in prime locations. The selected site is a historically registered building located in New York’s financial district. The tenant floors were empty and the building’s aged structure was exposed. The challenge was to transform this site into a modern, state of the art business center.

Criteria:

Space:

Location:

Age:

Condition:

 

20,000 useable square feet on two floors.

High rise office building located in Manhattan, New York City.

Approximately 75+ years old.

The interior space was stripped of all finishes. Steel beams were exposed and columns were only partially enclosed in fireproofing materials. Previous tenants left traces of old conduits, wiring and supplementary air handling units. Convectors were exposed.


Space Configuration:

Two small floors – each 12,500 gross feet.
Influences:

 

This site location is among Class A buildings housing business people who expect environments that support their images and working requirements. Their professional images require a comfortable, upscale, contemporary environment with technology to support their world wide business efforts. The center is located on two floors. This required an internal connection and an equal quality and service level for both floors.

The Solution:

 

We transformed the building’s bare structure into a Class A office business center environment starting with a densely designed, but easily navigated space plan on both floors. Conference rooms are provided on both floors and are situated close to a custom designed connecting stairway that is accessible and visible from the reception area. High quality finishes and contemporary architectural details used throughout. The center contains a community type “time out” area and all the necessary communication and technology its users require.
