The Municipal Building Commission (MBC) is responsible for the care and custody of the Minneapolis City Hall and Hennepin County Courthouse, which are jointly owned by both entities. Among many other renovations being completed in the Minneapolis City Hall, we were brought on board to assist in a critical power upgrade to the facility.
Location
Minneapolis, Minnesota
We remodeled the sub-basement space used for the MBC emergency generator, fire pump rooms, peak load management switchgear rooms, and completed an entire refurbishing of the critical power system. This included replacing the two generators that would service HVAC, environmental controls, security monitoring, general lighting, and power receptacles to maintain these critical functions during a long-term electrical outage. We also assessed the feasibility of moving all emergency electrical equipment out of the fire pump room to a mezzanine platform located adjacent to the fire pump room.
