This landmark mixed-occupancy building,
designed by Thacher and Thompson Architects, is
located on Pacific Avenue in downtown Santa Cruz.
The first floor retail spaces were designed with
flexibility in mind including a grease interceptor
system and commercial kitchen exhaust system to
allow restaurant occupancy. The hydronic heat
pump system offers flexibility and energy efficiency
for both the retail and office spaces and allows
sub-metering of most of the electrical use for
each tenant. The two floors of SRO apartments
at the upper level were heated with energy efficient
hot water baseboard units. All HVAC, plumbing,
and fire protection designs were performed by
Axiom Engineers(sm).
