Event Details

The Nines luxury hotel occupies the upper nine floors of the historic Meier & Frank department store. Reuse as a hotel was made possible through interventions such as the cutting of a seven-story daylight atrium and an innovative viscous-damper seismic upgrade. Significant sustainability efforts include low-emitting finishes, water and energy reduction, and green housekeeping, all of which were still rare in luxury hotel properties when this LEED Silver project began.

A brief presentation will be followed by a walking tour of the project. In addition to specific sustainable design elements, presenters will discuss the development process, complexities of project design and construction, unique aspects of the mechanical systems, and the impacts of sustainable design both on hotel development and operation.
