The rich history and beautiful interior design of downtown Lansing's Mutual Building (ca. 1928) made it an irresistible site for a milestone preservation project. As a shining example of downtown revitalization, historic preservation and sustainable design, the building's transformation into The Christman Company's national headquarters included the preservation of the building's historic fabric, which was embedded with innovative "smart" systems for heating, cooling, safety and other high-performance building controls.

The Virginia Capitol Restoration and Renovation was a legacy project and included the complete renovation and restoration of the Capitol building, construction of a new underground Capitol Extension with support tunnels, utilities, and site work. The project included the complete removal of existing utilities which were in a state of disrepair, a secure visitors entrance in the new underground space, an exhibit/educational area, additional administration space, a new utility loop to support the renovation and incorporation of new mechanical, electrical, life safety and technology systems into the building so that it functions effectively for the next 100 years.
