Bowman provided landscape architecture services for development of the new Commons and Health Care Center project on the grounds of the Armed Forces Retirement Home in Washington, D.C. (AFRH). The CHCC is a key step in the home’s long-range plan for affordable state-of-the-art care to our nation’s retired service men and women.
The project consisted of the MEP engineering and commissioning for a 300,000 sq. ft. core and shell office building and an above ground parking garage with a capacity of approximately 1,400 vehicles and 30 Level 2 EV charging stations. The garage design included a two-bay fire station for Howard County Fire and Rescue.
Bowman was responsible for the mechanical, electrical and plumbing design for the new 253,000 sq. ft., 10-story LEED Gold certified office building and seven-story parking garage located on Block 3 of the Pike and Rose development in Rockville, Maryland. The building includes 7,000 sq. ft. of shell retail space, a fitness center and conference center.
Responsible for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection design of several new Brightview Senior Living facilities. Projects included a mix of independent living units, assisted living units and memory care units as well as a full suite of amenities.
Bowman performed the MEP engineering services for the 105,000 sq. ft. Reston Town Center office of Peraton. The project involves the design and construction administration for four floors of corporate office space, including five SCIF spaces totaling 8,000 sq. ft. The design modified the existing base building VAV system to meet the new tenant layout, and design new dedicated units to serve the new mission critical spaces.
Bowman provided commissioning for multiple projects in the iconic Cathedral of Learning on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh. Projects include major renovations to areas of the building, including full HVAC/MEP replacement, and complete hot water systems upgrades. Renovations in a historic building have challenges.
Our team performed fire protection engineering and life safety design, as well as construction period services, as part of the design team. Phase I of the data center’s expansion included converting approximately 17,000 sq. ft. of existing office space in downtown Atlanta to a data center with associated support areas. Per the Internap basis of design, the data center was protected by a preaction sprinkler system.
Bowman along with Wildlife Imaging Systems is monitoring bat flight behaviors at wind turbines with thermal imaging cameras and post-construction monitoring. The videos obtained are processed using machine learning algorithms to identify bat tracks and unique behaviors associated with bat attraction to wind turbines.
As part of Middleborough downtown improvement plan, the team completed traffic counts, assessed signal warrant criteria, developed design plans for intersection layout, pavement design and resurfacing, drainage and watermain replacement, and construction documents for the proposed intersection improvements at two locations.
As part of a multi-disciplinary team, the team led the transportation analysis and design for the intersection safety improvements project. The team developed solutions to address the size and complexity of the intersection, which was challenging for bicyclists and drivers, while pedestrians faced long delays waiting to safely cross.
