The Triangle Building

The name says it all the Triangle Building. With uniquely complex architecture and tight site logistics, the Triangle Building project demanded both innovative solutions and good old-fashioned teamwork.

The Triangle Building, a new 250,000-square-foot Union Station Neighborhood office building, is awaiting LEED Gold Certification and features 15,000 square feet of ground floor retail with 212,000 square feet of Class A office space on floors 2 through 10. The 140-foot-tall building also has two levels of underground parking and features a unique triangular shape to fit the approximately 0.9 acre, zero lot line site. The Triangle Building is in a premier Denver location on 16th Street Mall and immediately adjacent to the new Denver Union Station. Included in the project scope was the Wewatta Plaza, a public plaza/walkway that forms an important part of the connection between Union Station and the Pepsi Center.

Pizza Hut Corporate Headquarters

Adjacent to the main office structure is a 145,000 SF, 3-level cast-in-place parking garage clad with architectural pre-cast panels. This building includes a number of unique features such as child-care facilities, exterior water features, an on-site data center, numerous full-size restaurant test kitchens and restaurant mock-ups of the company’s restaurants.

Ericsson North American Headquarters

Ericsson’s North American Headquarters expansion consists of two new four-story buildings, a connector building and two parking garages. This project is an example of successful global collaboration at all levels, where the project team was challenged with balancing Ericsson’s global design program with the needs of a North American operation and market, while also managing an aggressive budget and schedule. The prominence of Ericsson’s site required thoughtful consideration with regards to potential impacts on the surrounding community. With LEED Gold certification an early goal of the Owner, a number of sustainable practices were implemented to achieve this expectation and resulted in a 25% more efficient building than the standard benchmark.

Los Angeles Mission College East Campus Complex

This 98,000 SF, 7-acre project is one of the first design-build projects for LACCD. Closely following the textbook principles of a design-build project delivery, our project team worked collaboratively with the Owner to complete this project according to the Owner’s vision and goals.  In 2013, Pankow celebrates 50 years of collaborative delivery models and is a proud founder of the Design Build Institute of America.  We have been providing continual leadership throughout the organization for the past 20 years.

 

“The college ended up with a Lab/Classroom building that exceeds expectations for a community college facility. The college president told me that a representative from Cal Tech, after touring the building said, “I wish we had a building like this.”
