The College Board initiated the design and construction of a space fit-out in a new, speculative office building, comprising 235,000 SF on floors 9 through 17. The Class A office space is supported by high-density conference rooms, pantry kitchens, and server rooms.

The project achieved a certification level of Gold under the LEED for Commercial Interiors ™ rating system. Sustainable features include:

• Reduction in potable water of 30% below EPA of 1992
• Reduction in lighting power density of 15% below ASHRAE-90.1
• Use of daylight harvesting
• Design of separate temperature zones different solar exposures
• Self-contained air handling units (AHUs) on each floor distributed by fan-powered and shut-off variable air volume (VAV) boxes
• Thermostatically controlled exhaust fans serving LAN closets
