The one-acre rooftop park includes an infinity edge pool, fire pits, cabanas and outdoor grills.

Angelika Theatre at the Shops at Legacy

The Angelika Theatre interior finish out incorporated high-end materials that resulted in a sophisticated, luxurious venue. The 20,000 SF theatre features Angelika’s signature crystal chandelier and a free-standing radius stairwall with stainless steel rails and decorative concrete steps to match the stained concrete on the second floor concession lobby. The glass elevator is trimmed in brushed stainless steel and the elevator face on the second floor features walls fabricated from the same Israeli-imported granite that is used on the first floor.

The floor and columns on the first level of the theatre are crafted of polished bamboo. The concession stands on the second floor were made of exotic woods imported from Australia. Rogers-O’Brien installed all the equipment for concessions. Two of the theatres were designed for conference room capabilities, with dimming lights, podium and computer/Internet connectivity that ties into the theatre sound system. The team installed stereo sound systems in the entire theatre complex.

Encompassing over five city blocks, this 900,000 SF mixed-use development reestablishes West 7th Street in the historic Fort Worth Museum District with retail, office, hotel, and residential space. The architecture is an eclectic blend of lifestyle storefronts and modern styling.

The completed project features pedestrian walkways, tree-lined streets, plazas and outdoor seating.

Dallas Arboretum Parking Garage at B-1 & UW

This 460,000 SF, 1,150-space parking garage provides much needed additional parking for the Dallas Arboretum. The project included demolition of the existing surface parking lot and landscaping and construction of a new 5-story parking garage. The new parking garage features two floors below-grade, three floors above-grade and a 156-foot long pedestrian tunnel underneath Garland Road providing safe access for visitors to this urban public garden.

Infosys Data Center

The conversion of an existing Class A office space into a new 5,000 SF data center was achieved in three short months in a fully occupied building without incident or disruption of service to occupants. The supporting infrastructure areas are protected by an Inergen fire suppression system as well as a city required, redundant fail safe pre-action system. The requirement for standalone and uninterrupted operation of servers required that new dedicated infrastructure be added, including new electrical service, UPS, standalone Chilled Water Cooling System with air cooled chillers and an emergency generator for back-up power. A new service yard (tilt-wall enclosure) was constructed in the adjacent parking lot for securing the generator and cooling tower from outside interference or tampering.

INSYS Therapeutics Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Facility

Insys Therapeutics is a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops and commercializes innovative products for supportive care of pain patients. The Insys Therapeutics Facility project entailed the interior demolition of a 60,000 SF warehouse and the interior build out of a new pharmaceutical manufacturing facility. Along with the renovation of the exterior façade, the project scope also includes the addition of an 8,000 SF Class 10,000 Clean Room and another 20,000 SF of process space to accommodate the manufacturing of a range of patented pharmaceutical products.

Fair Park Esplanade Parry Ave

Based on the Fair Park Comprehensive Development Plan, the Fair Park Esplanade and the Parry Avenue Gate was restored and enhanced by the addition of a water feature which occupies a portion of the historic 700-foot long reflecting basin. The fountain includes the tallest water jets in the state and is designed to be choreographed to music, a sound system and lights. In the spirit of the original 1936 show, this new water feature delights visitors day and night with changing programs. The restoration included a large pylon, landscaping and light features surrounding the fountain. With the addition of the DART Light Rail Station in 2009, a restored historic entrance gate greets visitors to Fair Park. The gate structures were restored and the wall reconstructed to match its original 1936 appearance.
