Portfolio: Project Details


50 Douglas Drive
Office Building Renovation
Martinez, CA
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.
