Session 3

PENN 2: Creating a Future Destination

This presentation will also discuss major design elements such as the new triple height glass fin lobby and the over-cladding of the existing building’s façade with a new high-performance curtain wall. Ultimately, the strategic repositioning of the building has created a new building without demolishing the existing structure.
