DLZ provided architectural design and bid documents to allow for the consolidation and relocation efforts corresponding to the feasibility study for the Coolidge Maintenance Facility. The new building space program is approximately 200,000 square feet and site development of 19 acres. The DLZ team performed all phases of work including programming, schematic design, design development, construction documents, bidding, and construction administration services. Our team also performed technical services including environmental, demolition, geotechnical (Somat), survey, NEPA, commissioning, and a traffic impact study.
During the programming and concept validation phase, DLZ worked closely with DDOT to establish project goals and objectives which reflect the long-term mission of the Client. The development of clear project goals resulted in setting a strong foundation for further project development. Early in the design phase, a Construction Manager was successfully brought onto the team. The CM was able to jump into the project effectively and contributed to project development, project budgeting/estimating, scheduling, and bid packages. The design team was able to support DDOT in navigating the NEPA process and FTA approvals, which were required to secure project funding. Project advanced in close collaboration with the Owner and the Construction Manager resulting in delivery of a high-quality project which met the established project goals, on schedule, and under budget. Construction Cost: Approximately $150,000,000
DDOT has a new innovative, sustainable maintenance facility that provides a safe working environment for the employees and inviting space for users.
