Resources Building Renovation – Exterior Replacement

1416 9th St. Resources bldg. renovation
The 60 year old Resources Building at 1416 9th Street is now having the exterior cladding attached. It appears modern and clean, but the exterior has now lost any architectural significance and will soon be a featureless, bland glass tower. The original exterior had character and reflected a time that was the beginning of office high-rises being built in downtown.

The cost to do a total replacement of the exterior must have expanded the overall $461 million renovation costs quite a bit. It was not that long ago in 2010 two 18-story State office towers in downtown were also renovated. Both State offices #8 & #9 at 714 P Street had both interior and exterior upgrades while also keeping the original exterior design. AC Martin rendering
