Project Name
19 East Office Renovations
Location
Hershey, PA
Project Description
The Hershey Company selected Quandel Construction Group to renovate space previously utilized for production into offices for the Global Shared Services Group at the companyʼs international headquarters in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
The conversion from an industrial building into a functional, dynamic office space included the meticulous demolition of existing concrete and stone walls and ceilings to create windows and skylights and the construction of a new stair tower to provide additional egress from the building. Other challenging elements included the construction of a new mechanical system within the buildingʼs existing infrastructure.
To preserve the buildingʼs heritage, the existing concrete roof structure and columns remained exposed and serve as architectural focal points. Existing stone walls were preserved and restored to maintain historical elements of the building. Constructed as a Silver LEED Certified project, the Hershey 19 East Offices also feature exposed spiral ductwork, modern lighting, and sleek finishes to create an inviting work environment.
