Notable scope features include significant exterior stone removal and replacement; replacement and/or restoration of historic windows including reproduction hardware throughout the building; new landscaping; historic replication of replacement elevators; new sidewalks and pavers.

Significantly, the entire project was completed with no disruptions to occupants or the public and without damage to existing surfaces and landscaping.

Project challenges included: all interior work done at night and cleaned up so that there was no disturbance to the occupants; very limited site space; extremely tight security and scheduling considerations; significant renovation to building systems required substantial coordination, surveys, and recommendations.
