One Glenwood Tour and Program

Please join us for our March program, where we will tour the new 219,500 Class A office and retail tower at the intersection of Glenwood and Hillsborough Street. One Glenwood is located at one of the highest elevations in downtown Raleigh. The property and offers close proximity to Union Station, plentiful retail and housing, and North Carolina State University. The project bridges Raleigh’s busy Warehouse District to its popular Glenwood South neighborhood. One Glenwood is slated for delivery in mid-2018. Members of the development and design team will take us through the venue and talk about how about some of the opportunities and challenges during the design and construction of this project. Ryan Blair, VP of Development and Acquisitions at Heritage Properties and Neil Gray of JDavis Architects will be our presenters and tour guides for the evening.

Learning Objectives:

• Better understand the challenges of construction in an urban metro.
• Identify what key factors dictated how the design team chose the systems that were chosen, were installed, and specified.
• Better understand the project delivery process in the City of Raleigh.
• Identify key trends in modern mixed-use developments.
