“JLL has implemented an aggressive capital improvement program, focused on driving added value for the property,” says Linda Aronson, managing director and head of suburban property management. “All the improvements were designed to fulfill two goals: to enhance the energy and operating efficiency of the building systems and, just as important, to ensure the work truly enriched the aesthetics of the property. The property management team, implementing JLL's best practices, delivered the highest quality of service to tenants during this program.”

Building improvements were overseen by JLL's Property Management and Project and Development Services groups, with the effort led by Getz, Jerry Sullivan, senior vice president, and Susan Pady, project manager.

The building's owner has made a significant investment, with completed work including new white reflective roofs; heating, ventilation and air conditioning infrastructure mechanical improvements; a fiber-optic backbone to support a campus-wide energy management system; and a renovated four-story atrium with energy-efficient LED, light-emitting diode, lighting and soft seating.

In addition, the property's common corridors are being upgraded with new carpet, wall covering, ceiling system and energy-efficient LED lighting; and the complex's common-area restrooms are being renovated with a new decorative accent tile in the vanity area, as well as new subway wall tile, porcelain floor tile, LED light fixtures, and quartz-infused counter tops. Building improvements will also include a new fitness center, electric vehicle charging station and enhancements to the café seating area. Additional interior and exterior projects are in the design phase. The aesthetic improvements are a collaborative effort between Gensler and JLL.
