Each of the building\u2019s three floors offers office spaces, as well as areas meant for support and gathering. The structure was built to receive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/sustainability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LEED Gold certification<\/a> from the U.S. Green Building Council and to that effect features advanced HVAC, network controlled lighting systems, windows and skylights that provide natural light, as well as a rain-screen building envelope.
