Manchester, N.H. DeStefano Architects (D|A) has completed a new 7,000 s/f business suite at the Sundial Center.  The suite will serve as the regional office for the New Hampshire Department of Education’s Vocational Rehabilitation program.

The Sundial Center is a 360,000 s/f former mill building that serves as a showcase for commerce and education for the city.  The building is being repositioned as a mixed use occupancy facility to include commercial offices, residential units and centers for research and development.

“D|A’s passion towards sustainable design was key in the revitalization of such an iconic building in Manchester” director of operations at DeStefano Architects, Adam Wagner, said of the building repositioning.  “To bring new life to an old building while providing the community with an imperative resource is what we love to do.”

D|A teamed with CP Management to establish the new suite within the Sundial Center.  CP Management was founded in 1986 and is comprised of experienced professionals with comprehensive levels of service, providing property and facilities management, construction management, development, residential management and leasing, and more.  CP Management oversees management of the Sundial Center and recently established their own on-site suite within the building.

Of working with CP Management and D|A, Mary Belecz of the NH Department of Education said “[They] have all been a pleasure to work with and have provided a great space for the Department of Education.”

D|A has been providing design and construction administration services to commercial property owners in New England for over 20 years.
