QEA is currently designing a comprehensive interior and exterior rehabilitation of the Robert S. Vance Federal Building and Courthouse located in Birmingham, Alabama. Originally built in 1921 as a federal courthouse and post office, the Classic Revival building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Enabled by the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009, the project is part of GSA’s High-Performance Green Buildings and Design Excellence Programs. The project will meet LEED Silver requirements.
Construction is slated to begin in 2010.
