The parking structure will be 5 levels, approximately 534,000 SF, with the capability to add a 6th level in the future. The parking structure provides space for a 12,000 SF Central Utility Building (CUB) with utility piping and control stub outs that will support chillers, cooling towers, fire pumps, standby generators and underground fuel tanks. The CUB is located in the lower level of the parking structure. Construct HVAC systems for the parking garage elevator lobbies with ground source heat pump systems and install ground loop field. Construct the HVAC and plumbing systems for the new guard houses with ground source heat pump systems, as well as system for the restrooms. Construct 3700 feet of primary feeder which requires connection to a substation and to new 38 kV equipment. Install 38kV switchgear in the CUB for the interconnection of the new substation feeder to the new switchgear. Install 1500 kW generator to backup this distribution path when utility power is not available. Supporting facilities include extensive site and utility improvements.
