Designed by renowned Canadian architecture firm KPMB, the tower\u2019s setting above the podium mitigates its impact on the busy street and aligns it with other buildings along Commonwealth Avenue. The series of floorplates that make up the building are shifted and cantilevered around a central core to create neighborhoods for each department within the tower.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c9361e4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c9361e4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The cantilevered and stepped massing plays into the building\u2019s sustainability benefits, as it forms balconies and green roofs that allow occupants fresh air and stunning views of the city. The building\u2019s interior design plays a sustainability role as well, with \u201cirresistible staircases\u201d that offer unique terraces in the atrium and breathtaking views of the city. The goal: invite people to walk up the stairs rather than take the elevator, promoting physical health and energy reductions. One of the largest components of the building\u2019s sustainable construction are the geothermal bores, a system that is essential for BU\u2019s Climate Action Plan goal of net zero emissions by 2040. BU\u2019s goals also put the university ahead of Carbon Free Boston, the city\u2019s pledge to be carbon neutral by 2050. Suffolk\u2019s team drilled and installed a total of 31 bores, each 1,500 feet deep, which will harness the thermal capacity of the earth for heating and cooling and eliminate the need to connect the building to a gas line.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-75be446b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"75be446b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Due to space constraints on the urban site, the bores needed to go much deeper than a typical geothermal system \u2014 which is typically about 500 feet \u2014 to achieve the expected 300 tons of heating and cooling capacity for the 19-story building. At that depth, groundwater and rock formation plays a significant role in the verticality of the drilled borehole. Skillings & Sons, an experienced drilling subcontractor, controlled the verticality of the bores and kept all tolerances within five percent.<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5c1214ee elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5c1214ee\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4f6545b4\" data-id=\"4f6545b4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bf8c0d8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"bf8c0d8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 25-04-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"436\" src=\"https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2-1024x436.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-8365\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2-1024x436.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2-768x327.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2-1536x654.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/tentcohouston.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/pexels-nicole-rathmayr-220885-copy-2.jpg 1658w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-105de798 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"105de798\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-73f9c5c4\" data-id=\"73f9c5c4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6fd1e15d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6fd1e15d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Locating the bores so they didn\u2019t interfere with the building footprint was another challenge.
