When the Office of the State Comptroller was moved from the Alfred E. Smith State Office Building to a new site in downtown Albany, it created the opportunity for a major renovation of this historic building. This 34-story, 500,000 square foot building, constructed in 1926, had had no upgrades in 35 years and was in need of major rehabilitation to meet tenant requirements and to bring it into conformance with current building codes and 21st century technology.

VDA provided consulting services through construction administration for modernization of 18 gearless elevators and 2 geared service elevators, and for installation of one new wheelchair lift.
