New Social Security Building

Post by Bill Call »

Here is a link that provides a picture of a newer Social Security Office in Virginia:

I can't figure out how to put the picture here so take a look.

It seems like an attractive building. I can't wait to see what they have planned for Lakewood.

I've read that the proposed building is a one story. If that is true, it seems to me to be an incredible waste of limited space. Why not a 2 or 3 story building?

Ok, the first one you posted is awesome compared to the last link's buildings. Those get a double MEH from me. Not unique at all. Looks like many other spec office buildings out there in this country. Pretty standard and not inspired.

I am glad, at least, they are LEED buildings. Do you know if this one will be?

just cram it into the empty grocery store building across from Giant Eagle at Bunts. the ceiling is high enough for dividing the vertical space into two or 3 floors.

I wouldn't mind waiting in the office if they had pancakes.
