The base isolation system was utilized to lower the forces transmitted to the building in future seismic events and thereby protect the historic fabrique of this 18-story structure. Turner Construction was the selected construction management firm responsible for overseeing the construction. Faye Bernstein & Associates, as subconsultant to Turner, performed constructability reviews and provided a full-time assistant superintendent for the construction.
