building

Owned and managed by Hines, One Atlantic Center is a 50-story, 1.1 million-square-foot office building and a fixture of the Midtown Atlanta skyline. Designed by Philip Johnson and John Burgee and completed in 1987, One Atlantic Center is clad in rose-colored Spanish granite and crowned with a pyramidal copper roof. Gothic crenellations near the building crown add another distinctive feature. The building is set in a two-and-a-half acre landscaped park; inside, a soaring three-story granite-and-marble lobby provides a dramatic entry to the building for tenants and visitors.

One Atlantic Center earned the ENERGY STAR for superior energy performance as a result of a series of coordinated retrofits and upgrades to the building's energy-consuming infrastructure. On the lighting side, incandescent lamps throughout were replaced with high-efficiency fluorescent bulbs. HVAC was another focus of the work, with variable frequency drives (VFDs) added to air handling units and cooling tower fans helping them to operate at levels closely corresponding to actual demand. Finally, building engineers actively manage equipment operation and scheduling, helping to ensure the most efficient possible operation.

Hines has been recognized with multiple ENERGY STAR Sustained Excellence and Partner of the Year awards. For a summary of the firm's participation in the ENERGY STAR program and other sustainability information, visit www.hines.com/sustainability
