Latham Square

Construction in a building built in 1927 takes special skills and expertise. Metcon was part of a team that resurrected a legendary building. Seismic retrofits in an occupied, historical high rise can be disruptive and destructive. This repositioning project tested our abilities in problem solving, team work and outside the box thinking. The project included tenant improvements in a historical building, reconstruction of occupied spaces post seismic retrofitting, common area improvements, building utility upgrades, exterior renovations, abating of hazardous materials, bringing in HVAC systems, and parking garage work.

This ambitious downtown San Jose repositioning project showcased a little bit of everything that Metcon can do. Featuring designs from two of the area’s best architects Modulus and Habitec the transformation included exterior and interior overhauls. The exterior project included a European glass rain screen that was installed 12 stories up the building’s exterior skin. It was anchored to the exterior structure by a structural steel web system designed by esteemed San Francisco engineer KPFF. Crews worked off swing stages and material cranes. The 10 and 12 story buildings were both completely repainted and the site received to hardscape and landscape. The project also consisted of two lobby renovations, a fitness center, multiple tenant improvements, carbon fiber seismic strengthening, 2 small restaurants, a barbershop, Orange Theory Fitness, common area restroom and corridor remodels, installing a new window washing equipment system and davits, and multiple Tenant improvements of all shapes and sizes.
