Project Buzz: Diamond Bar City Buildings
The City of Diamond Bar recently selected Heery International to provide construction management services for the renovation of a building that will house both the City Hall and the Diamond Bar branch of the County of Los Angeles Public Library.
The city purchased the 57,000-square-foot building at 21810 Copley Drive in September 2010 to house new office space. The County of Los Angeles then signed an agreement to rent space for its new library in the building in the spring of 2012. Once relocated to the new facility, both the library and the City Hall will more than double their current size, with the library occupying 18,000 square feet on the first floor, and the city occupying the remainder of the two-story facility. Built in 2000, the building previously housed an insurance office and call center.
The $5.5 million project is targeted to achieve LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
