PUBLISHER’S MESSAGE

THE CRANES REMAIN MAINLY ON THE PLANE Commercial construction demand continues to rise

I

f there’s one question that I’m asked the most frequently as publisher of an industry trade magazine, it is “What do you hear out there? Is this positive growth going to continue?” The answer is great news, according to the 2014 UCLA/ Anderson Forecast Commercial Real Estate Survey. This study is the leading indicator of future commercial construction in California. It analyzes the three-year outlook for real estate development activity and provides insights into new, not yet on the radar, building projects. According to this study, new commercial space is expected to increase through 2017. What does this mean for the industry? It means a continued optimism fueled by a lack of sufficient building supply and supported by strong job growth. Office development is going to remain steady and the uncertainty about the 2012-2013 fiscal cliff has proven unfounded. Cautious, developers in the Bay Area view the existing stock—as well as new construction in the pipeline—to be sufficient to meet demand. However, the latest survey indicates that nearly one-half of the panel plan to start one or more new projects in this market within the next 12 months, concluding an expectation of continued improvement in the market. As we contemplate our future here in the Bay Area, the most significant concerns become: how are we planning for this growth, how will the job growth and increased density impact housing demand, and is the current public transportation plan sufficient. Are we planning an infrastructure that can support the boom, and is this commercial construction demand creating supplementary industry explosions? It all remains to be seen, but if you ask me today, “is this positive growth going to continue?” my answer is a resounding YES! We encourage your feedback.

FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY PAYS OFF Corporate Campus’ investing in energy generating technologies

A fuel cell is an electrochemical device that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity, with water and useful heat as its byproducts. Fuel cells offer a unique combination of benefits that make them a vital technology ideally suited for a number of applications. Fuel cells are complementary, not competitors, to other electricity generation technologies, including renewable ones.

Fuel Cell Benefits No other technology offers the combination of benefits fuel cells allow: • Fuel flexible - operation on conventional or renewable fuels • High quality, reliable power • Exceptionally low/zero emissions • Modularity/scalability/flexible installation • Can operate independent of the grid • Extremely quiet • Lightweight • Rugged • Can be used with or instead of batteries and diesel generators • Can partner with solar, wind, and other renewable technologies • Increased productivity • Cost savings via high electrical and overall efficiency Fuel cells are operating in several market segments today, with major customers making large volume and repeat purchases. To learn more about fuel cells, please visit www.fuelcells.org.

C

orporate customers have discovered that investing in fuel cells pays off – saving money on fuel and labor costs, reducing emissions, and yielding substantial savings through increased efficiency and reliability. Many companies have become repeat customers, purchasing additional, and in many cases, larger, fuel cell systems for their facilities. The fuel cell industry is growing, attracting customers from a wide range of market sectors. Fuel cells are now operating in stationary and motive power applications to provide: • primary power to material handling equipment, resulting in improved efficiency and cost savings at warehouses and distribution centers • reliable, resilient primary power for high-volume data centers; • high-efficiency, low-emission power for corporate headquarters; • backup power to crucial computer and communications networks; • clean, reliable power that keeps retail stores open even when grid power goes down; and • megawatt-scale power feeding directly into the power grid. New industries are coming into the fold. Major corporate data centers (Apple, eBay, Microsoft) have started to bypass grid power, using fuel cells with renewables to generate their own power onsite. Some energy providers (Delmarva Power, Dominion, NRG Energy) are building up grid resiliency by adding megawatt-scale fuel cell power generation to deliver reliable power to their grid networks.

CALIFORNIA BUILDING ENERGY EFFICIENCY STANDARDS UPDATE 2008–2014: Making sense of the code AS WE ALL KNOW, IN ORDER TO BUILD ANYTHING LARGER THAN A TOOL SHED, WE NEED A PERMIT. WHILE AT TIMES A BURDEN, ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING PARTS OF NEW CONSTRUCTION CODE COMPLIANCE ARE THE ENERGY CONSERVATION ELEMENTS OF TITLE 24.

T

he permit authorities are guided by Title 24 Regulations for energy conservation and they are generally a good idea. The Energy Commission reports that we have saved Californians $66 billion in electric and natural gas since 1978 and that the new standards will increase efficiency by 25% in our homes and 30% in non-residential buildings. California’s Building Energy Efficiency Standards are updated approximately every three years. The new 2013 Standards went into effect July 1, 2014, and improve upon the 2008 Standards for new construction, additions, and alterations to residential and non-residential buildings. The California Energy Commission contends that the standards drive cost effective energy efficient design as well as make buildings more comfortable while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs. Sounds great but what does that mean? It appears that rebates previously allowed for energy efficiency elements of new construction will no longer be eligible unless part of stand-alone projects. With that bad news nugget, the area many professional are focusing on is lighting. Some of the key lighting changes include: • Lighting power densities – Watt/sqft. Office >250 sqft- 0.9 to 14

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

0.75 in 2013 (0.5 best in class), • If more than 10% of fixtures worked on it triggers T24 requirements, • Acceptance test technician – Owner pays to have them ensure lighting controls work, • Controlled outlets required in office space, • 0.05 watts – unoccupied space lighting - VERY LOW • Dimmable fluorescent -getting cheaper “Title 24 Part 6 –– Kelly Cunningham, California Lighting Technology Center” Of course more detailed information is available on the California Energy Commission website. There are also opportunities to participate in the next round of updates to the Codes through the Codes and Standards Enhancement (CASE) initiatives. More efficient use of daylight (free!) and user interface controls for lighting and heating will make our homes and workplaces more comfortable and better places to live. Check out the Design lights consortium – an approved products list, In addition, these skills will bring new jobs to the industry as the need for integrated BMSs grows this could be the place for further career development.

2014/2015 EL NIÑO WATCH Could it keep facilities managers and roofing specialists running for cover?

WHAT IS THE OUTLOOK FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 2015 WINTER SEASON? CALIFORNIA IS NOW IN THE MIDST OF ITS 3RD YEAR OF DROUGHT AND ONE OF THE WORST ON RECORD.

PROPERTY OWNERS AND FACILITY & PROPERTY

MANAGERS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DEFER ROOF MAINTENANCE AND APPLY THOSE CAPITAL FUNDS TO OTHER PROJECTS AS A RESULT OF THE LACK OF RAIN.

I

ronically, it is because of the drought many roofs are deteriorating faster than usual - the damaging effects of the sun are what cause roof membranes to shift and buckle; crack and fail at penetrations; seams to split; leak around drains; nails to back-out; and flashing to separate from edges. Owners and tenants learn of the roof’s true condition when it eventually rains. The odds are increasing that El Niño, the powerful climate phenomenon that alters precipitation patterns across the globe, will develop in the Pacific Ocean this year, U.S. government forecasters say. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Prediction Center activated its alert system on Thursday to issue an alert. The alert means that conditions in the eastern tropical Pacific are favorable enough that El Niño has a more than a 50% chance of forming by the summer or fall.

16

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

Though it’s too early to predict with much confidence, if El Niño re-emerges it could produce wetter weather in the southern United States next winter, bring more rain to California, temper the Atlantic hurricane season and push up global temperatures in 2015, experts say. The El Niño cycle begins every two to seven years when weak trade winds in the Pacific allow warmer water to build up along the west coast of South America. El Niño conditions often result in higher rainfall in California, but not always. Typically, they cause the jet stream to dip south over North America, directing storms to the California coast and across the southern U.S. La Niña, the cycle’s cool-water counterpart, is associated with drier weather in those regions. If El Niño returns this year it would be the first since 2009-10, a moderate episode that was followed by the next season by La Niña. For the past two years the eastern tropical Pacific has remained in neither a cool nor warm state some experts have referred to as “La Nada.” Thursday’s forecast by the Center for Climate Prediction and International Research Institute for Climate and Society at Columbia University, gave a 52% probability of El Niño developing by the fall, compared with a 41% chance of conditions remaining neutral. Mike Halpert, acting director of the Climate Prediction Center, said scientists have observed a warming of sub-surface waters that has been “fairly impressive.” “We’re seeing a fair amount of evolution towards El Niño below the surface and we’re getting some confirmation from a number of our computer models,” he said. “It looks pretty good at this point.”


Thursday’s El Niño watch follows several months of forecasts based on observations from satellites, buoys and floats and computer models that have shown increasing signs El Niño could return later this year. Halpert cautioned that El Niño forecasts before spring are notoriously unreliable because of volatile ocean and atmospheric conditions. Predictions made this early in past years, he said, have sometimes failed to play out. The last major El Niño, an unusually powerful episode in 199798, brought rainfall more than 200% above normal to Southern California. Powerful storms hit the coast, triggering destructive landslides and floods.

With California still in a drought, the state might be more open to the risks posed by El Niño if it meant an influx of needed rain, Halpert said. “For the folks in California, this might be a case where they would welcome that,” he said. “You might take a bit of the bad to refill your reservoirs.” Whether the El Nino comes or not it may be a good time to inspect your roof and perform maintenance. Most damage to roof comes from extensive dry periods and UV damage from the sun which we have had plenty of the last couple years. Source: Platinum Roofing

IMPROVING FUNDAMENTALS AND ROBUST INVESTOR APPETITE FUELS SUSTAINED PERFORMANCE OF U.S. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY PwC US and Urban Land Institute’s Emerging Trends in Real Estate® Forecast

20

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014


THE SUSTAINED PERFORMANCE OF THE U.S. COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN 2015, FUELED BY IMPROVING FUNDAMENTALS AND ROBUST INVESTOR APPETITE – BOTH DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN. “

U

nlike previous reports and previous cycles, we are seeing sustained growth,” said Mitch Roschelle, partner, U.S. real estate advisory practice leader, PwC. “In the past several years, we reported that real estate market participants’ main fears revolved around the uncertainty with the economy. Now, the trepidation in their eyes has more to do with the ability of the growing real estate markets to adapt to a series of mega trends impacting society and the global economy. These mega trends include accelerating urbanization, demographic shifts and the impact of disruptive technological advancements.” ULI Global Chief Executive Officer Patrick L. Phillips pointed to the continued rise of markets other than the largest coastal cities as top choices for overall real estate prospects. Houston and Austin, which are ranked first and second, respectively, topped San Francisco as favorites for 2015; Charlotte N.C., in seventh place, is rated higher than Seattle and Boston; and Nashville, ranked at 13, tops Manhattan. “Investors are looking closely at opportunities beyond the core markets. These cities are positioning themselves as highly competitive, in terms of livability, employment offerings, and recreational and cultural amenities,” Phillips said. PwC and ULI outline the top trends in real estate for 2015: • THE 18-HOUR CITY COMES OF AGE The urbanization of America has given life to cities that had been historically nine-to-five. According to interviewees, no longer is it accepted that only the great coastal cities can be alive around the clock and on weekends. Downtown transformations have combined the key ingredients of housing, retail, dining, and walk-to-

work offices to generate urban cores, spurring investment and development and raising the quality of life for a roster of cities. Buyers have more markets to consider now that the 18-hour centers are putting the elements in place to ratchet up their investment capital flows. • THE CHANGING AGE GAME The millennials are an even larger cohort than their parents – the baby-boom generation. While the tendency of millennials to postpone homeownership and rent longer will affect the apartment sector over the next several years, many survey interviewees noted that investors should consider how the housing preferences of millennials could change in the 2020s. Looking beyond the millennials, the report anticipates further industry changes resulting from the emergence of the smaller “Generation Z.” Planning for a nation with lesser household formation, fewer new consumers, and a meager number of workforce entrants is the challenge ahead for a real estate industry with its eye on the 2020s. The report also notes that baby boomers—as workers and retirees—will continue to have a significant impact on real estate development and investment for at least two more decades. • LABOR MARKETS ARE TRENDING TOWARD A TIPPING POINT The report states that forward-looking businesses are waking up to a realization that while we were worried about the “jobless recovery,” longer-term labor market trends were moving in exactly the opposite direction. Retirements will accelerate while | continued on page 22 | WINTER 2014 BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE

| continued from page 21 |

the peak of millennial labor force entrants has already passed. Within a few years, the talk will be about labor shortages, not surpluses. The notion that “jobs are chasing people” will morph into a primary rule of the labor market. Survey respondents place job growth at the top of the list of most important issues for real estate, closely followed by the related concerns of wage and income growth. • REAL ESTATE’S LOVE / HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH TECHNOLOGY INTENSIFIES No form of real estate is exempt from the exponential expansion of technology. Interviewees see technological disruption as providing new business tools and environments, opening new business paths, and cycling forward as a source of user demand in an era when more traditional industries may be sluggish. Technology is pushing change in space use, locations, and demand levels at an accelerated pace. It is now the norm to anticipate, strategize, and respond to new technologies before they are mainstream. Overall, the fear factor about technological disruption is easing, according to surveyed respondents. E-commerce and crowdfunding, for example, are being viewed as an adaptation challenge, as retailers become “omnichannel distributors” and e-tailers begin to open brick-and-mortar stores. 22

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

• EVENT RISK IS HERE TO STAY There is nothing new in seeing investors along the continuum from “core” to “opportunistic,” but the trend will be that such distinctions are heightened over time, and 2015 looks to be a year when this will be especially evident, interviewees note. The reason is that the concern about “event risk” is troubling the minds of more and more interviewees (geopolitical risks, global unrest, and natural disasters). This is why international investors are considered to be the best prospect for increasing investment volume in 2015, according to the survey. • A DARWINIAN MARKET KEEPS THE SQUEEZE ON COMPANIES Competition is unrelenting, and the need to have a clear “brand identity” is important as firms seek to navigate in the swift stream of capital. The recent spin-off activities in the retail, office, and hospitality real estate investment trust (REIT) sectors sound a theme that will echo as a trend in 2015. The drive for efficiency and effectiveness in both service delivery and cost will filter from investor expectations down to the service providers, the report states. • A NEW 900-POUND GORILLA SWINGS INTO VIEW Emerging Trends 2014 alerted readers to the establishment of the Defined Contribution Real Estate Council to help plan


sponsors and their participants achieve better investment outcomes through the use of institutional quality real estate. With a combined $12.6 trillion in capital, individual retirement account (IRA) and defined contribution (DC) funds will be identifying and taking advantage of the benefits of having high-quality commercial property in a mixed-asset portfolio. • INFRASTRUCTURE: TIME FOR THE UNITED STATES TO GET SERIOUS? For all our vaunted technological innovations, the foundation of our commerce is eroding around us. It’s not just bridges and roads – since 2009, spending on educational buildings and health care facilities (by both public and private sectors) is down by one-third in real-dollar terms. • HOUSING STEPS OFF THE ROLLER COASTER Housing seems to be putting the excesses of the bubble and the ensuing collapse behind it. The trend in residential real estate, according to interviewees, looks to be returning to the classic principles of supply and demand. As this major segment of the economy returns to textbook fundamentals, confidence in the residential sector should continue to rise.

• KEEPING AN EYE ON THE BUBBLE – EMERGING CONCERNS The generally positive outlook flowing from this year’s Emerging Trends interviews and survey does have a dark side. Upcycles breed optimism, but excessive optimism can promote bad investment patterns. However, in most cycles, overbuilding and excess leverage would likely have already started building momentum by now. To the degree that hasn’t happened, the industry looks like it has learned some lessons in self-regulation and self-correction.

MARKETS TO WATCH Real estate investors continue to be willing to pay record prices for assets in the major markets due to the fact that these markets offer less volatile returns of capital that can only be found in a limited number of markets across the globe. This year, interviewees reflected a desire to take on a measured amount of new risk in search of higher yields. Two strategies mentioned repeatedly with interviewees focused on moving to more opportunistic-style investments in the major markets or in markets close to a major metropolitan area, or looking for the best assets in markets outside of the core major markets. This year’s market rankings reflect the attractiveness of markets for both of these strategies. | continued on page 24 |

A snapshot of the top five markets ranked by survey respondents and their outlook for each market: 1. Houston – Houston offers a significant amount of investment opportunity. Investors believe that the energy industry will continue to drive market growth and that will support real estate activity in 2015. Houston was ranked number one in both investment and development expectations for next year; housing market expectations are ranked number two. 2. Austin – Interviewees like the industrial base, the appeal to the millennial generation, and the lower cost of doing business in Austin. The market was a top choice for both the office sector and the single-family housing sector and the number two ranked market for retail. Interviewees are also attracted to Austin’s diverse employee base, and the market is an example of “jobs chasing people.” 3. San Francisco – The decline from the number one spot last year, according to surveyed participants, is due more to growth in the other cities than any identifiable flaw in the San Francisco market. The strong local economy and 24

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

improved domestic and international travel have made San Francisco the number one choice for hotel investment in 2015. Respondents ranked the office market number three and the retail market number four. 4. Denver – Denver joins Austin and San Francisco as markets popular with the millennial generation. Denver’s industry exposure to the technology and energy industries has also attracted investor interest. The results of the survey put Denver retail at number five and office at number six. 5. Dallas/Fort Worth – Interviewees raise the possibility that despite being ranked lower than Houston, the economic diversity could make the current growth rate more sustainable in Dallas/Fort Worth. The market continues to be attractive to real estate investors because of its strong job growth, which benefits from the low cost of living and doing business. Single-family housing in the market is the highest ranked property sector – and it also has the highest ranked industrial sector (number four) among the top five markets from this year’s survey.


PROPERTY TYPES • INDUSTRIAL Since 2010, the industrial property sector has enjoyed a rising demand trend and supply additions that have not kept pace. Come 2015, however, industrials are entering a period when projected construction is accelerating, but demand is anticipated to decelerate, according to surveyed participants. Last year, many interviewees really liked industrials – a feeling that has not changed for many. The industrial sector stands atop the sector rankings for investment. • HOTELS The prospects for liquidity in the hospitality sector shape up as excellent for 2015. Remarkably, and in distinct comparison with most other property types, the survey shows no expectation of any alteration in cap rates for hotels. This year’s Emerging Trends survey shows hotels rated strongly in participants’ 2015 prospects for investment and development, especially in the limited-service category. • APARTMENTS The opinions of the Emerging Trends survey respondents seem sharply divided. For high-end multifamily, nearly half the respondents (48 percent) felt it would be smart to divest in 2015, while 30 percent consider it worthwhile to hold for a longer period. Only 21 percent suggest this is a good time to buy. At the more moderate income level, that relationship was reversed. Only 28 percent recommend selling while holding and acquisition are more attractive, with 37 percent and 35 percent recommending these as opportunities in the year ahead. • OFFICES One of the more powerful trends for offices – the live/work/ play theme – is not just hype, but statistically significant. The resurgence in downtown living is bolstering secondary office markets around the country. In addition, the drive toward space compression in office use is about at its end, and in the coming years the quality of the office environment will be used as a marketing tool to recruit talent. The millennial generation will not put up with the space cram-down much longer, especially as it gains seniority in the workforce. Greater flexibility and variety in office space design will be superseding cost-cutting as a prime imperative. And if the millennial generation’s impact is still evolving, so too is the boomers’. Survey respondents grasp the inexorable path of demand growth for medical offices – which is seen as a “buy” for 2015 by 36.3 percent of respondents, and a “hold” by 40.6 percent, with only 23.1 percent advising “sell.”

• RETAIL Investment and development strength in the retail sector ranks the lowest of all the major property types in the survey. Just as the slow recovery in jobs has hindered many other economic growth indicators, so too has the jobs recovery made real estate professionals wary of calling a bounce back in retail. Optimism has seemed premature – or even unrealistic. It’s time to question that as the story for retail for the second half of this decade should be of expectations exceeded. • HOUSING Housing is well on the way back, according to survey respondents, and they rank urban/infill as the top opportunity for 2015. Yet, the after-effect of the housing bubble has not fully dissipated, and this will partially shape demand for the next several years. Even with jobs on the rise, doubling up in either parents’ homes or with several roommates is an accepted norm, even if temporarily, for millennials. This version of a “new normal” is not forever, but it will linger because of the combination of high student loan indebtedness, meager wage and salary growth, and inadequate savings. Now in its 36th year, Emerging Trends in Real Estate® is one of the most highly regarded annual industry outlooks for the real estate and land use industry. It includes interviews and survey responses from more than 1,000 leading real estate experts, including investors, fund managers, developers, property companies, lenders, brokers, advisers, and consultants.

and we need to make sure the buildings can supply our game developers with the appropriate cooling and power. That is more important than squeezing people in to reduce real estate rental costs.

WHAT ARE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE INDUSTRY THAT YOU’VE SEEN IN THE PAST DECADE? Similar industries competing for the same talent, employees have more input into final site and build out and are requesting space that is comfortable, casual and has the computing power for the increased electronics that are at everyone’s desk tops. WHAT ARE YOUR BUSINESS/CAREER GOALS FOR THE NEXT DECADE? Stay connected, be flexible, progressive, implement change where it has positive impact on the end product for the “player/ consumer”, and remain in the global market.



WHAT IS YOUR SINGLE MOST CURRENT CHALLENGE TODAY? Enough space in time for all our new hires – 2014 we are on track to hire over 400 new employees WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR BIGGEST OPPORTUNITIES TODAY? Building out efficient, user friendly, collaborative enhancing workspaces WHAT ARE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE INDUSTRY THAT YOU’VE SEEN IN THE PAST DECADE? Much more focus on energy conservation and environmental factors being integrated into the workspace. Customers requiring as part of our response to an RFP that we include our environmental statement or policy to ensure we align with their environmental policies. HOW DO YOU VIEW THE TREND OF MOBILITY IN THE WORKPLACE? IS THIS A MODEL IN YOUR COMPANY? It is growing. More and more meetings are held via Video Conference or even Face Time allows work from anywhere and

distant team members are much more easily engaged. Less travel greatly improves productivity

HOW ARE YOU MEASURING/DETERMINING EMPLOYEE DENSITY? We use a standard model and work to be <200 sq ft per person (which is actually on the high side). More important is, flexible, casual meeting spaces versus traditional conference rooms HOW DO YOU COMPARE THE BAY AREA CLIMATE TO THAT OF OTHER REGIONS? The Real Estate market in the Bay Area changes weekly. You need to really keep up with it on an ongoing basis. I need to have a weekly call with our Broker just to keep up. Other areas of the country the markets are much more “normal” and not nearly as volatile as the Bay Area. Even N.Y. does not seem to be as crazy. We have huge Real Estate players that we are competing with like Google, Apple, Face Book these types of companies concentrated in a fairly small area put a huge strain on the overall Real Estate Market. You do not see that in other markets in the country.

Instead of a one size fits all model, spaces are designed for users—tailored to their individual work styles and business needs. This helps with efficiency and collaborating. WHAT TRENDS DO YOU SEE IN THESE AREAS: LEASE VS. OWN? 32

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

Tech companies tend to prefer short term leases, which provide them necessary flexibility. We’re seeing companies experience such rapid growth that they run out of space less than 12 months after occupying a new office.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY The recent Title 24 change to the California Energy Code is an example of how both vendors and clients are becoming more aware of energy efficiency. Before, energy efficiency was only discussed if the client was pursuing LEED certification. Now, it’s part of the everyday conversation. DO YOU SEE GROWTH OR EXPANSION WITHIN YOUR COMPANY? INDUSTRY? We’ve seen exponential growth within our company and industry over the past few years. The rapid growth has been incredible to watch and experience.

MOVING FORWARD The new Transbay Transit Center to be the “Grand Central Station of the West”

THE TRANSBAY TRANSIT CENTER PROJECT IS A VISIONARY TRANSPORTATION AND HOUSING PROJECT THAT TRANSFORMS DOWNTOWN SAN FRANCISCO AND THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA’S REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM BY CREATING A “GRAND CENTRAL STATION OF THE WEST” IN THE HEART OF A NEW TRANSIT-FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD.

T

he Transbay Transit Center Project will replace the Transbay Terminal in downtown San Francisco and create a new, multimodal Transit Center that will eventually serve more than 100,000 passengers per day and become the new hub of economic life in San Francisco. The project will also create a transit friendly neighborhood with new homes, parks and a retail main street surrounding the new Transit Center. The Transit Center and its neighboring Transit Tower are designed by Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects and include an exciting 5.4 acre park on the top of the Transit Center roof named “City Park”.

This park will provide a new downtown amenity for residents, commuters and visitors alike and will double as a “green roof” for the building. Additionally, the Transit Tower will incorporate green building strategies including passive solar shading, high performance glazing, geothermal cooling and wind power. As a critical component of the Bay Area regional public transportation network, the Transbay Transit Center Program contributes greatly to the regional sustainability goal of alternative public transportation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Caltrans defines Transit Oriented Development (TOD) as a transportation related land use strategy that can be used in large urban and small communities in coordination with bus, rail and/ or ferry transit systems. TOD is an alternative to the predominant pattern of low-density sprawl that results in dependency on automobile travel. The Transbay Program is a national model for TOD. The new Transit Center will bring 11 different public transportation systems under a single roof. The Transit Center will be the centerpiece of a new transit-oriented neighborhood where people live, work, visit parks, and shop within walking distance of public transportation. TOD will slow global warming; reduce energy and commuting costs, resulting in increases in household incomes; reduce traffic congestion and commute times, thereby increasing productivity; conserve land, particularly sensitive natural areas, by reducing suburban sprawl; improve health as more people walk and ride bikes; increase mobility; and provide new recreational opportunities through development of urban parks, such as the 5.4 acre rooftop park on the Transit Center. The Transbay Program is a leader in the drive to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. The Downtown Rail Extension alone is projected to eliminate 36,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually; the full high speed rail system will reduce emissions by another 3.4 million tons per year when completed in 2030.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN In addition to its role on the forefront of Transit Oriented Development, the Program will incorporate many sustainable design and green building features, including the following: • One of the most visible sustainable | continued on page 38 | WINTER 2014 BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE

MOVING FORWARD Transbay Transit Center | continued from page 37 |

features is the 5.4-acre roof top park. “City Park” will serve as a living roof on the Transit Center, reducing the urban heat island effect common in dense city environments and helping to filter the surrounding air. The park is being designed with efficient irrigation and drainage systems and will incorporate climate appropriate plants. • The new Transit Center will take advantage of natural daylight to offset the need for electric lighting during daylight hours while the Light Column feature in the Grand Hall will bring natural light into the internal areas of the station. The Transit Center will natural ventilation in the Grand Hall and on the bus deck level. • The Transit Center will help support San Francisco’s aggress-ive recycling goal of reaching 75 percent diversion (and eventually zero waste) by providing three-stream waste separation that includes compost and recyclables. During demolition of the former Transbay Terminal, TJPA recycled over 7,500 tons of steel and over 92,000 cubic yards of concrete, enough to fill 28 Olympic size swimming pools. In addition to supporting progressive recycling and composting during transit center operations, the project intends to meet the LEED requirements for construction waste management while the new Transit Center is being built. • The project will also earn several LEED credits for storm water runoff reduction, water conservation and irrigation water use reduction. The current water system design will reduce total potable water use in the Transit Center by half and will address all aspects of water conservation including building uses, irrigation, water reuse and more. The Transit Center will include storage tanks for grey-water as well as storm water runoff from the rooftop park. As a result of these and other sustainability features, the Transit Center is on track to earn a LEED gold rating.

SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES OF TRANSBAY TRANSIT CENTER The Transbay Transit Center is a modern regional transit hub connecting eight Bay Area counties and the State of California through 11 transit systems: AC Transit, BART, Caltrain, Golden Gate Transit, Greyhound, Muni, SamTrans, WestCAT Lynx, Amtrak, Paratransit and future High Speed Rail from San Francisco to Los

38

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

Angeles/Anaheim. The new Transit Center will accommodate up to 45 million riders annually, including bus, commuter rail and high speed rail passengers, of which many will walk or ride their bicycles to and from the Center. The Transbay Transit Center will be a gold certified LEED building development, which will incorporate the use of natural lighting, geothermal regulation, and grey-water recycling. All of these elements help reduce Green House Gases. The project design incorporates many sustainability elements. • Rooftop Park: Instead of a five-acre roof absorbing and radiating heat, the 5.4 acre rooftop park will absorb carbon dioxide from bus exhaust, absorb and filter storm-water, and provide a habitat for local wildlife. • Extensive Use of Natural Lighting: Lighting is the biggest energy use in the Transbay Transit Center building. Light columns and skylights will be used extensively to bring natural light into the building and reduce energy costs. Additional lighting controls will allow dimming of electric lighting in response to the presence of daylight, and lighting will be completely shut off in much of the Transit Center during “off-peak” hours. • Grey-water/Storm-water Reuse: In order to minimize potable water consumption and substitute other non-potable water, the facility incorporates dual drainage piping so that grey-water is collected from select plumbing uses and then recycled back for flushing toilets and urinals. Grey-water and storm-water reuse, combined with water-conserving fixtures, will save over 12 million gallons of potable water each year. Water reuse also reduces energy consumption associated with transporting water to the site. • Geothermal System: To significantly reduce the energy required to cool the building, a geothermal system will harness the relatively low temperature of the ground to chill water passively. Pipes will be coiled under the building footprint, circulating water deep below grade. The geothermal cooling system contributes to water conservation efforts by reducing cooling tower use by approximately 350,000 gallons per year (60% less than a typical cooling tower system).

NON-PROFITFOCUS

THINK YOU AREN’T AT RISK? Think again. It’s not always the usual suspects.

Because Every Heart Matters

IN AN UNEXPECTED TURN OF EVENTS, DEAN DUPUY DIED SUDDENLY OF A HEART ATTACK WHEN PLAQUE RUPTURED IN HIS ARTERY. THE NON-PROFIT NO MORE BROKEN HEARTS HOPES TO BRING ABOUT AWARENESS, KNOWLEDGE AND TESTING TO HELP PREVENT THESE OCCURRENCES.

D

ean and Victoria met in November 1991. Together they created an amazing family with two wonderful children. They had a beautiful home, jobs they loved, friends they cared for and a bright future together. That all changed with no warning at all. He was ONLY 46 years old. Dean was a seemingly healthy, young man with an incredible zest for life. He was very active and health conscious, running

races, mountain biking, skiing and playing in an adult hockey league. He did not fit the profile of someone at risk of a heart attack. On September 29, 2013, after completing a Muddy Buddy race with his daughter, Dean took the kids and went off to play hockey. He was on his first shift, four minutes into the game, when he collapsed and shortly after he was gone. That was it! 12 hours after seeing him with that huge grin, so proud with his daughter and his son—he was gone. Soon after, Victoria immersed herself in learning all that she could about heart disease, plaque and noninvasive testing. She noticed that there were many stories just like hers. It’s because of these stories and her passion to save lives that she created No More Broken Hearts, because for her, every heart matters. Not only the one who suffers the tragic event but all that are left behind, spouses, kids, family, friends, co-workers. Every one of these hearts matters. The non-profit No More Broken Hearts was launched in September 2014 in memory of Dean Dupuy. The mission is to create awareness in the community of the value and urgency of early detection for heart disease and stroke through simple CT scans, such as the Coronary Calcium Score Scan and the Carotid Intimal Medial Thickness Ultrasound; especially those individuals who are considered asymptomatic and considered no risk or low risk. Heart screenings and Carotid Artery Ultrasounds are available to predict heart attacks and strokes years before a tragic event happens; yet they are rarely done or recommended even though they have been proven to save lives. At No More Broken Hearts, we want to see a world where these screenings are a routine part of annual physicals, just like mammograms and colonoscopies. So many of us think we are doing all the right things and living a healthy lifestyle but the truth is, no one is immune to heart disease.

I

n total, the project encompasses 175,000 square feet of usable space over four floors and aims to connect with Square’s brand at both aesthetic and functional levels, highlighting the company’s core values of modern and functional design to create a refined, seamless experience. Responding to both the large scale of the floor plate and the client’s request for an open workplace, the design scheme is organized using an urban metaphor. The main office floor measures the length of a city block and 100,000 square feet in area; by taking cues from urban planning, the design creates clear circulation routes with visual landmarks that break down the scale of this expansive space. Furthermore, bringing elements of the city into the office creates connections with Square’s culture and brand, as their products and services foster transactions and commerce in the urban marketplace. A central boulevard serves as the organizational spine for this main office floor. Lined with communal tables and cabanas, and

punctuated by “civic” spaces, including a library, coffee bar, and gallery, the boulevard functions as the primary hub for team collaboration and social interaction. Individual departments are arranged into smaller neighborhoods clustered around transparent glass cubes along each side of the boulevard; conference, meeting, and phone rooms are organized into simple, sleek glass storefronts that run the length of the floor. This use of full-height glass in enclosed rooms reinforces the client’s desire for an open and fully transparent workplace. The perimeter zone against the windows is populated with lounge seating and communal tables that allow open and democratic access to natural daylight and views. A separate level on the upper floors houses of a full-service commercial kitchen and servery, with dining spaces also used for weekly companywide meetings. Additionally, two of the tower’s upper floors are designed as flexible teaming areas, each complete with open office workstations, conference rooms, and lounge areas with | continued on page 42 | panoramic views of San Francisco.

SUNPOWER CAMPUS Leading by Example

SUNPOWER, A SILICON VALLEY BASED MANUFACTURER OF HIGHEFFICIENCY SOLAR CELLS, PANELS AND SYSTEMS, IS A COMPANY WHOSE COMMITMENT TO RENEWABLE ENERGY IS SEEN AS BOTH A MORAL OBLIGATION AND AN ECONOMIC DRIVER.

H

owever, it was a commitment that was virtually invisible in their existing interior—a space built out for a Silicon Valley chip maker where the preferred color was a grey tone that in no way implied the power of the sun. Working on an extremely tight budget and schedule, a campus of three one-story buildings of roughly 186,000 SF was leased. The design assignment was to express the

commitment to renewable energy throughout the interior. But energy is invisible and PV cells are not animated objects; they are platforms for silicon wafers that convert the sun’s energy to electricity. Our strategy was to build the entire interior design around both light and the absence of light. Skylights bringing in natural sunlight have been added, and a variety of lighted coves, soffits and architectural fixtures “paint” the space with light as a visual expression of the energy the PV cells collect. The space consists of open office workspace arranged around meeting spaces, private and informal. The project visually connects the research and development of SunPower with the open office space by dividing the spaces with glazing. Large wall graphics featuring the company’s brand and photovoltaic cell installations from around the world were designed and installed in more than 50 conference rooms, the lobby, several break rooms and training areas. With the low-rise nature of the campus, an array of PV cells covers the roof and PVs cover large areas of the parking. On the exterior, these changes announce the commitment to renewable energy generating 2 Megawatts of power. Source: Valerio Dewalt Train Assoicates WINTER 2014 BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE

SANDISK’S ENERGY SAVINGS GO THROUGH THE ROOF Maximizing environmental and cost savings through energy audits and tax incentives

W

hen it was time for a new roof system at the Headquarters of SanDisk the facilities team of Joe French and Rick Friedman reviewed several types of roof systems and accepted bids from multiple qualified contractors. One of the main drivers of the project was upgrading the roof system while maximizing the energy efficiency. SanDisk was in the process of finishing a campus wide upgrade to their lighting, HVAC and other energy related systems at the time. Eventually a Fluid Applied Membrane with high reflectivity was chosen. The Fluid Applied Membrane provided multiple benefits to the facility including lack of disruption to operations, multi-phased installation and an increased energy savings. The reflective roof surface saves an average of 10% on the HVAC costs by not allowing heat to penetrate into the building, and there are also additional savings of increased efficiency of the HVAC systems due to a lower air temperature at the roofing surface. The increased efficiency of the HVAC means the system does not have to work as hard to lower the intake care. It also means less long term maintenance for HVAC compressors and motors. The Fluid Applied Membrane comes with a 10 Year NDL Labor & Materials Warranty backed by the manufacturer. The

44

BAY AREA BUILDING MANAGEMENT GUIDE WINTER 2014

roof system also has the added benefit of allowing future roof installations without voiding the warranty or integrity of the roof. Due to its low reflectivity the existing roof will longer as it does not continue to break down from the suns UV. During the process Sandisk worked closely with Platinum Roofing, Waterproofing & Energy to maximize energy rebates. SanDisk was provided estimated energy savings calculations, tax incentive calculations and an energy audit. Platinum worked with Sandisk to help them realize a rebate of $1.80 per square foot by qualifying the project for a 179D Tax Deduction. Section 179 is one of the few incentives included in any of the recent Stimulus Bills that actually helps small businesses. Although large businesses also benefit from Section 179 or Bonus Depreciation, the original target of this legislation was much needed tax relief for small businesses - and millions of small businesses are actually taking action and getting real benefits. The 179D Tax Deduction is expected to expire at the end of 2014 but may be extended. Recent completed upgrades in 2014 or prior may also still qualify for a 179D Tax Deduction.
