5th & C

The 5th & C Street project consisted of an extensive renovation to a 3-story mixed-use (office over retail) building located on the highly trafficked intersection of 5th Avenue and C Street in downtown San Diego. The building was originally constructed in 1910 and is immediately adjacent to the downtown trolly stop and a major metropolitan bus transportation hub. Scope delivered:

• Extensive demolition of the entire building to prepare for new improvements, including new electrical and mechanic services and systems, structural upgrades,
• Internal space reconfiguration to optimize floorplates, new lobby, new external staircase, façade upgrade to the entire exterior, and warm shell improvements to all 3 levels, including the basement
• Project challenges included a zero lot line project with very limited staging/laydown areas on a very busy pedestrian and metropolitan transportation route
