Morgan Stanley
2000 Westchester Avenue, Harrison, NY
Plaza Construction Corporation was selected by Morgan Stanley to serve
as Construction Manager for the fit-out of the former Texaco headquarters
in Westchester County. The building, comprised of three levels of
over 250,000 SF each, was "re-built" while an existing tenant remained
in occupancy throughout the substantial phased upgrade of base building
systems and the interior construction. The project was completed
over an eighteen month period.
Morgan Stanley purchased the building
to serve as its Westchester headquarters
and as both a primary and
an emergency trading facility. The
balance of the space consists of
newly constructed open area workstations,
perimeter offices, conference
center, cafeteria, and reception
spaces, and two data centers totaling
20,000 SF.
Base building work included electrical substation upgrades and the
installation of a new 2000kw N+1 UPS system with distribution, a new
6000kw N+1 parallel redundant EPS system consisting of (3) 3x2000kw
diesel engine-generators and distribution switchgear, new roof top dry
cooler systems, new rooftop DX cooling systems, a building automated
control system, security system and backbone, as well as a new
telecommunications plant. A portion of the courtyard in the center of
the building was filled in with a new roof system to create a single
trading area for 1000 desks.
In addition, a new 320,000 SF parking garage with all site amenities
was constructed to accommodate parking requirements. Plaza collaborated
the Project Team consisting of Hines as Project Manager and
Roger Ferris + Partners as Architects during the Schematic Level of
design, with a fast track schedule for a phased completion and delivery
of the project. The first phase of occupancy was achieved in the
fourth quarter of 2003.
