SM&W Contribution
The 10-story, 180,000 square foot Cesar E. Chavez Federal Memorial Building was constructed in 1984. Almost 30 years later, the structures glass and aluminum curtain-wall skin has deteriorated to the point of needing replacement, as has much of the building’s mechanical, fire safety utility, and other systems. To bring the property into the 21st Century and position it for another generation of federal service, a $33 million reconstruction/renovation is underway, paid for in part by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds.
