Details
This project consisted of the complete renovation of a 1,050 square foot commercial kitchen located on the 14th floor of the National Press Club Building in Washington, DC. Completed entirely at night over 6 weeks, this project included major modernization of the existing 20+ year old mechanical and plumbing systems to accommodate the installation of all new stainless steel kitchen equipment, exhaust hood and range suite.
The kitchen is accessible by the members of the Press Club, requiring the level of fit and finish to be higher than the traditional back of house facility. The design incorporates various types of floor tiles, millwork trim and stone tops. A key coordination effort was necessary to complete the new plumbing floor penetrations, which were located in the ceiling directly above the Club’s main entrance on the 13th floor. This area was kept clear throughout the duration of the project.
