Albany Running Exchange

BBL provided design-build services to transform this once vacant and abandoned property into a modern space that is now home to the Albany Running Exchange of ARE Event Productions, an endurance event timing, technology, and full-scale production company.
The renovations at 1028 Broadway included demolition of 2,968 sf of existing office space including complete replacement of concrete slab on grade due to existing cracking and varying thickness. The office area included three offices, one conference room, two bathrooms, one shower room, and a open office area with breakroom and kitchen area. As part of this work 7,405 sf of warehouse space was renovated to include required HVAC and a new, larger overhead door into the space. Within the warehouse, electrical, mechanical and a storage room were added as part of this work. Work also included a 2nd floor apartment and break area of about 300 sf which had to be structurally added in the warehouse space. The space included one bathroom with shower and open concept kitchen and break space at the second floor and a storage room below. Exterior work included masonry repairs to the existing structure and painting of all elevations
