A new vestibule protects the lobby from winds off the harbor and a new corridor progresses through a series of ramped spaces to negotiate a four and one-half foot drop to the main lobby.

Along with the new office entrance, Rosen Johnson opened the building's fortress-like walls to gain retail visibility and reinvigorate street life in this prime location.
