Swinerton is providing general contracting services for the construction of Charlotte’s first all-electric fire station. The groundbreaking project will be a symbol of the city’s dedication to sustainability. The two-story, three-bay facility will set a new standard for municipal buildings in Charlotte and across North Carolina. The design goes beyond mere aesthetics, as it embeds energy efficiency and sustainability at its very core.

The innovative facility is not merely a replacement for aging Station 30 but a bold stride into a greener, cleaner future. The project also serves as a testament to Charlotte’s commitment to its Strategic Energy Action Plan. The plan aims to transition municipal operations entirely away from fossil fuels and form a carbon-neutral footprint across all city-owned buildings. The plan’s ambitious scope mirrors a growing recognition of the urgent need for climate action at the local government level, ensuring that public infrastructure can lead by example in the race against climate change.

Targeting LEED Gold Certification,? mass timber, glulam, cross-laminated timber (CLT)

Swinerton provided general contracting services for the new community center called ‘The Hub’ in the heart of the redeveloped Sunnydale HOPE SF neighborhood. The facility is part of the new campus, which supports community connection and serves as the new gateway into McLaren Park.

The new 30,000-square-foot, two-story center features mass timber. It includes a teaching kitchen, study areas, a recording studio, and a mix of spaces to accommodate a full slate of social events, workshops, and classes. It serves as a living room for neighbors to meet and connect. The building has new facilities for the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Francisco and Wu Yee Children’s Services—it significantly expands their capacity to provide top-tier childcare and programming for neighborhood youth.

CLT and glulam were chosen to ensure a warm and inviting community space and LEED Gold certification based on biophilic, sustainable, structural, and aesthetic qualities. The exposed wood structure is a simple scheme that leverages mass timber’s increased construction speed and decreased waste. Mass timber brace frames are showcased in key locations throughout the design via framed, glazed openings. These brace frames allow for a more open exterior skin with more access to daylight and views. The mass timber beams and girders are exposed and visible at locations where programming requires long spans to demonstrate their structural capabilities. This new hub features the possibilities of mass timber construction and the importance of environmental responsibility, and it provides a beautiful gathering space for the community.
