Howard CDM took what was the 9,000 SF attic, stock and mechanical room on the third floor of a former JC Penney building and transformed the space into our own company headquarters. The new office was built to WELL Platinum standards and features a modern + open concept floorplan. LED lighting, customized work surfaces, low height walls and the overall openness maximizes efficiencies in both work production and energy management, capturing natural light and bringing the outside environment into the space.
