EI recently assisted Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America with the relocation of corporate offices from Warren, NJ to a 24,781 RSF space on the fourth floor of Newport Tower in Jersey City.

The Newport Tower facility is LEED Gold Certified and the Mitsubishi tenant office improvements were designed to be cost-effective, utilizing building standard office finishes and sustainability guidelines. EI Associates assisted Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma with the selection of furniture and finishes that comply with the requirements of the Newport Tower Construction Rules and Regulations, which include the building’s sustainability guidelines standard building specifications.

Perimeter radiation heating is located along the exterior walls of the space. HVAC supply and return ductwork and electric service were extended from readily available house supplied services at the perimeter of the space. The new space was provided with a new VAV HVAC system. Fire sprinkler piping was also modified.

The expanded office area consists of perimeter private offices, a large central open office collaborative work space, conference rooms, a Board Room and a break area. EI provided complete planning, interior design, architectural, structural and MEP engineering to support this project.
