HEAPY is the Designer of Record for the complete renovation of the CORPORATE CENTER for JPMorgan Chase. This building is the 2nd largest single tenant corporate office building in the United States behind the Pentagon, totaling 1,461,000 SF. HEAPY has provided and continues to provide electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection design for this $320,000,000 project.
The project has been executed in MULTIPLE PHASES while maintaining an occupied and operational building with more than 10,000 current employees.
The 111,000 SF amenities section of the building includes a large conference center complete with advanced audio visual and lighting as well as HVAC, Plumbing and Fire Protection upgrades to accommodate the modification. The conference center is comprised of many differing sized conference rooms and training rooms with various levels of audio-visual support tailored to the needs of each user. Spaces vary from a board room and huddle rooms up to an expansive Multi-purpose room with a capacity in excess of 600. HEAPY also utilized a pressurized raised floor cooling system in the A/V rack room (supporting the Conference Center Multiple Purpose Room).
The remaining 1,351,000 SF of the multi-floor office space is broken into four main wings with four additional secondary wings flanking a main atrium space. The building improvements create a more open, efficient and collaborative workspace with state-of-the-art features to create an engaging, high-performance workplace.
INFORMATION SECURITY is paramount at this international banking headquarters. A closed network was implemented for security, as well as a double interlock security access systems for all technology rooms. All Automated Temperature Controls and Lighting Controls must be stand alone and are not permitted to transmit outside the complex.
While the building is not pursing LEED accreditation, HEAPY designed the building with SUSTAINABILITY in mind. Examples include the integration of daylight harvesting into a Lutron Lighting controls system, using LED lighting in all spaces, and installing low-flow plumbing fixtures to comply with water usage requirements. The project met or exceeded all ASHRAE requirements for heating and cooling.
HEAPY worked in COLLABORATION WITH THE PROJECT TEAM, including designers, owner’s groups, and construction managers and contractors to ensure all goals are met for the project. In addition, our team endeavored to make the owner aware of all foreseen and potential risks related to project construction. All members of the team used the BIM 360 C4R Platform.

HEAPY provided full design of the MEP, ICT (Information Communications Technology) and Fire Protection systems for the Owens Corning WORLD HEADQUARTERS. The project contains many AMENITY SPACES: a 275-seat auditorium, a full-service conference center, a 400-seat dining facility and gourmet company store, a full-service health and fitness center, a medical center/employee assistance facility and a full-service credit union. The site includes walking trails, exercise stations, a softball field, gazebo and a campus-style courtyard.
The Owens Corning/Hines Property managers knew it was time for a facility refresh. HEAPY worked hand in hand with the design and construction team to collaborate on the changes. The design includes new lighting upgrades, as well as relocation of all power and data related to the new layout of the demountable walls to provide an open office experience. In addition, we provided power and lighting upgrades within Panther Hall, a 275-seat auditorium.
The café was also refreshed to allow open seating with collaboration areas. Each area of the design included additional power for charging of devices as well as a wireless network adjustment to allow end users to have wireless coverage. Within the executive suites, new conference and collaboration spaces were created to help with video conferencing meeting across the worldwide firm.
On the main floors each cubical was replaced and power/data was designed to support the new layouts. In addition, collaboration rooms were created in different sizes, each of these room were designed to support full video and audio collaboration with the ability to schedule rooms within teams and the scheduling panels located outside of room.
As part of the project, the design included the removal of a floor to allow for open space between the floors. This required a complete rework of the mechanical systems, lighting, fire protection and technology to support the changes to the building.
During the project it was decided to update the access control system cameras / surveillance / blue phones while the refresh was taking place. The complete project was phased to allow manual disruptions to the staff by creating temporary space for the user to work during construction. HEAPY worked COLLABORATIVELY to coordinate shutdowns and moves to keep all the systems up and running for the staff.
