William S. Moorhead Federal Office Building
In partnership with the General Services Administration, Page modernized the 1964 Moorhead Federal Building to enhance efficiency, functionality, and occupant experience. The high-rise complex underwent a comprehensive transformation from the outside in, beginning with a new curtain wall that not only elevated its aesthetic appeal but, more importantly, improved performance by preventing infiltration and thermal loss.
Inside, Page collaborated with the 50 government agencies occupying Moorhead’s 23 floors to tailor solutions to their diverse space, function, and security needs. Through thoughtful tenant programming, space planning, and comprehensive system upgrades, the team delivered a secure, Class A office building that reduced total energy costs by 28% compared to pre-renovation levels.
The result is a modernized facility that reinforces GSA’s forward-looking vision while providing a healthy, durable work environment.
Awards
-
Building Excellence Award, Best Renovation Construction, Master Builders’ Association of Western Pennsylvania
Phasing the renovation of an occupied, multi-tenant high-rise in an urban setting requires creativity, precision, and a lot of teamwork. Page did just that by prioritizing close collaboration and clear communication from day one.
Working with the tenants, GSA, building management, contractor, and construction manager, we designed a flexible infrastructure that supports current and future programmatic, security, and technological needs without impacting existing missions or work functions. Phased construction and the judicious use of swing space allowed daily operations to carry on without interruption.
“There were over 50 different customer agencies for this project, and [Page] met with each agency, as a group and individually, throughout the project to assure their needs were being met, while keeping the design under budget and ahead of schedule for GSA.”Mike RyerProject Executive, GSA
