Construction continues on the two-building Class A Office Mennica Legacy Tower, which will be comprised of a 35-story east tower and a 10-story west building located in the Central Business District of Warsaw. For this project, Epstein is serving as the architect and engineer of record, as well as the design engineer for MEP and structural engineering services. Our friends at Goettsch Partners are the design architects.

The construction of the Mennica development, due to the sites relatively high water wall and the adjacent existing subway lines, is utilizing the "Slurry Wall," or "Diaphragm Wall," technique. Tom Suarez, PE, SE, Epsteins chief structural engineer and designer of Mennicas structural system, explains what can be seen in the construction progress photos featured in this article:

"The façade installation has reached the top of the building. Left to complete is the screen wall around the roof level mechanical floor and the in-fill zipper along the east wall, where material hoists were installed. The plaza work also continues with the fountain and landscape planters becoming visible."

Mennica is scheduled to open in the third quarter of 2019.
