In order to consolidate personnel into one location and create a building that befits the high-tech business, South Slope constructed a new corporate office facility on a 15.5-acre site. South Slope CEO J. R. Brumley says, "We're in a highly competitive area, and we need to have that 'Wow!' effect. We need to let the new businesses coming in know that we're serious."
Shive-Hattery was hired to produce that 'Wow!' effect. The project involved master planning and design services for the new complex, which includes a 45,000-square-foot office, two service vehicle storage buildings and a 5,000-square-foot conference center. This center, which is used for employee training and community events, accommodates 300 people and includes a stage, sound system, multi-level lighting and kitchen area.
The three-level corporate headquarters, which has a two-story lobby, is designed for 120 employees. The first floor has customer service, billing, marketing, data transmission and switching areas, a computer room and a break room.
