Project Description
The William McChesney Martin, Jr. Building was designed by the architecture firm, H2L2, and located across C Street Northwest from the Marriner S. Eccles Federal Reserve Board Building. Designed in the 1960s, the building was a contemporary interpretation of classicism and used materials similar to the Eccles Building. An interior design objective of the building was to provide maximum flexibility of office space through movable partitions and modular furniture, as well as optimum energy utilization. Groundbreaking took place in 1971 and the building was completed in 1974. Dedicated on November 19, 1974, this building was named in honor of former Federal Reserve Board Chairman, William McChesney Martin, Jr. who served from April 2, 1951, through January 31, 1970.
Grand Light engineers designed a linear LED retrofit solution that provides energy efficient lighting with a turn key install, full range dimming from 0-100%, and optimal light levels. The existing configuration used (87) medium-base incandescent bulbs rated for 75W each. The new LED configuration utilized 26 ft of a dimmable Linear LED Light Strip, with a new max lumen output of 5358 lm. These fixtures originally used 6,525W which was reduced to 52W total using the new LED assembly.
