301-381 East Evelyn Avenue is home to a uniquely preserved architectural example of 1980s office park design. The aim of this project is to retrofit this suburban office campus into a diverse, connected, and urban environment. SWA approached the site from the same perspective as that taken for successful urban neighborhoods. A hierarchy of outdoor realms organizes site elements and integrate the Avenue into its surrounding locale, whereas the office park had previously been isolated and distinct. A grand front plaza welcomes visitors and workers alike, while alleys encourage people to meander through the site. The central street creates a flexible linear space, and a central park serves as an everyday “commons” that office tenants’ breakout spaces embrace, establishing a more modern, indoor-outdoor working environment.
