New Corporate Headquarters Construction

42,000 SF Phase I | 29,000 SF Phase II

Springfield, PA

As Construction Manager for Gap International’s new headquarters on a seven-acre wooded site, Erickson completed the two-phased project on a fast-track schedule of only ten months. The building featured full-height glass curtain walls, free-floating glass staircases, an entrance-pond bridge, full-length reflecting pool, and Feng Shui design, winning the GBCA’s Construction Excellence Award for Commercial Building.

Phase II increased the building’s footprint by an additional 29,000 square feet, for a total of 71,000, and included renovation of office and conference spaces, a dine-in kitchen, as well as a spacious patio and exterior decks. The new construction blended into the existing structure’s clean, sweeping profile, with an architectural emphasis on diminishing planes, concentric styling, and design details such as stepped ceilings and traffic-friendly interiors. Pursuant to completion of the second phase, Erickson once again received the GBCA’s Construction Excellence Award for Best Institutional Project.
