CJL Engineering designed the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems for this tenant fit-out project. This project involved the 140,000 SF fit-out of two full and two partial floors for Buchanan, Ingersoll & Rooney’s (BIR) headquarters in Pittsburgh’s historic Union Trust Building. Completed in 1917, the Union Trust Building was once known as the Union Arcade. In 2014, nearly 100 years later, the building shell was carefully renovated to highlight its Flemish-Gothic details, stained-glass windows and 10-story open Atrium. The BIR fit-out captures the spirit of the Atrium immediately upon walking into the Main Reception, through the clever use of LED light panels mimicking the atrium ceiling.
