Bell Works – Former AT&T Bell Laboratories

OVERVIEW
Bell Works is a reimagination of the former Bell Labs building, encompassing 2-million SF of space for offices, retail, dining, and hospitality. Designed by architect Eero Saarinen in 1962, the landmarked building previously functioned as a research and development facility for Bell Laboratories and as the headquarters for AT&T. Langan supported the redevelopment of the 473-acre site, including the design of new entrances, lighting, and landscaping, as well as natural resources permitting and field observation during construction of the entrances. We also managed the regulatory permitting, obtaining local approvals from the Holmdel Planning Board and Soil Conservation District.

Panasonic North American Headquarters

OVERVIEW
This 12-story, 340,000-SF high-end office building occupies a portion of a former below-grade parking structure.

A major project challenge was the design of a 400-space parking lot, which required substantial coordination with the existing FBI complex. The building is the first of its kind in Newark, obtaining LEED Gold certification for the core and shell, as well as LEED Platinum certification for the interior.

Allergan Headquarters – Parking Garage

OVERVIEW
5 Giralda Farms is a 463,000-SF Class A commercial office building located within the beautiful Giralda Farms campus, which was formerly the estate of Geraldine Rockefeller Dodge. As part of the re-tenanting of the office building in 2016, Langan assisted the owner to plan, design and permit additional parking at the facility to meet the needs of the tenant, Allergan. We worked with the project team to plan and design a parking facility that fit within the unique character of the campus while protecting significant historical landscape features. To meet the strict sustainability requirements of the Giralda campus we included bioretention basins, swales and porous pavement measures, and designed a stormwater management system.
