Palm Beach County Vista Center

West Palm Beach, Florida

The four-story, 251,000 square foot governmental office building designed by STH allows Palm Beach County to consolidate the departments of Planning Zoning and Building, Metropolitan Planning Engineering, and Environmental Resource Management into one building, creating a one-stop service center. Special consideration was given in the planning and design to accommodate both public use as well as restricted access areas. The program, also developed by STH, was based on projected staffing figures for 2011, allowing for the design to incorporate expansion into the floor plans. STH coordinated with staff and developed a comprehensive program study for current and future staff needs. The project also includes a five-story parking garage that accommodates approximately 700 cars.
