SGA-designed lobby at 99 High St. now open - Corderman & Co. worked as the construction manager
Boston, MA According to SGA, a Boston and New York-based national architecture, interior design, planning, branded environments and virtual design construction firm, the lobby of 99 High St., an award-winning, 32-story 730,000 s/f tower in downtown, is now open.
“SGA’s architecture, interior design and branded environments teams collaborated to transform the façade, entry sequence and lobby at 99 High Street, a landmark building originally designed in 1971 by Pietro Belluschi and Emery Roth & Sons,” said Gable Clarke, IIDA, LEED AP, director of interior design and partner at SGA. “The repositioning effort provided expanded retail opportunities and important modifications to the building’s infrastructure.”
In addition, Clarke said that the new design incorporates a relocated corner entry, featuring a double-height glass façade for enhanced building presence and visibility at the corner of Congress and High Sts.
Prior to kick-off, the design and launch of the $7 million renovation project, SGA’s innovative design concept was presented virtually, an approach that enables prospective clients to better visualize project space.
Corderman & Company provided construction management services for owner Nuveen Real Estate on the transformation of this office tower.
“Guests and tenants will enjoy a distinctive lobby experience which incorporates natural materials and organic elements which serve as an extension of the nearby greenway,” Clarke said. “The design also features a refreshed “99” to be incorporated in signage elements as well as promotional collateral for the building.”
The leasing agent and property manager of 99 High St. is CBRE. Corderman & Company served as the general contractor.
