Description
Summary:In 1998, Mellon Bank's officials decided to build an addition to their corporate campus: an operations building dubbed the Client Service Center. The purpose of this new structure was not only to provide better efficiencies for their processing functions, but also to provide a reliable backup facility for their entire corporate headquarters and the flexibility to change functions within the facility in the future. The new facility, which rests atop a pre-existing subway station, is a shining example of what can be accomplished when stringent operational requirements are combined with a willing and knowledgeable client. For its design of mechanical and electrical systems, H.F. Lenz of Johnstown, PA, has garnered itself CSE's 2001 Integrator Award in the Commercial design category.
