Maclise Drugstore Building
Seismic Retrofit
Oakland, CA
Interactive Resources' structural engineers completed the seismic retrofit for this historic landmark office building, comprised of URM brick exterior walls, and wood floors and roof framing. The three-story building and its basement were originally constructed circa 1880, and was extensively damaged in the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake.

Our structural engineering work won an "Orchid" Award from the City of Oakland in 1992. The Maclise Drugstore Building is noted on the State Register of Historic Places.
