At 119 metres — or 387 feet — 111 Main is now the third tallest building in Salt Lake City, Utah. The 24-storey office tower is being developed by City Creek Reserve Inc., who also built the downtown City Creek development, a hub of new office space, residences, and retail that was completed in 2012.
In addition to roughly 440,000 square feet of rentable column-free office space, the project dedicates 2,000 square feet for retail units on the ground floor. The building puts environmental performance at the forefront of its design, with high-performance glazing and under-floor HVAC systems reducing energy use and contributing to LEED Gold certification.
Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the building shares its parcel of land with the Salt Lake County Center for the Arts’ George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Theater. The 2,500-seat venue attracts high-calibre productions from Broadway, as well as a range of musical and comedy acts. Retractable glass walls ensure a fluid connection between the two facilities.
A unique two-way steel hat truss system topped the structure in January 2016. The system supports the 18 perimeter columns in an integrated load-balanced structure. According to the project renderings, these impressive roof trusses will be viewable from all angles through a translucent glass veil when crews finish work in August.
