Contra Costa County 50 Douglas Drive Office Bldg. Renovation
Contra Costa County

Interactive Resources was hired by Contra Costa County to review the adequacy of
an existing 90,000 square foot office building for occupancy by the County
Probation Department, the District Attorney's Family Support office, the Family
Law Courts and Juvenile Courts. As part of the planning and programming study,
Interactive Resources interviewed key staff members in the Probation Department
and the District Attorney's office in order to program space requirements for
the new. The proposed move to 50 Douglas Drive enabled the Probation
Department, previously housed in two separate cities, to consolidate in one
building.
Following the identification of space needs, the firm designed the needed
renovations, developed associated cost estimates, and provided space planning
and interior design services. Additionally, the firm was called upon to replace
the existing Cedar lathe siding with masonite. The firm prepared comprehensive
construction documents and specifications for all renovation work, and provided
construction administration services for the interior and exterior
improvements.
The firm subsequently prepared the design for the realignment and tenant
improvement of the third floor for use by County offices. The space was
previously leased for use as medical offices and clinic.
