180 CityPoint – 180 Third Avenue, Waltham, MA

The new BXP Life Sciences building located at 180 CityPoint Third Avenue in Waltham, MA, was turned over in a core and shell condition in late 2023 upon completion of construction by the General Contractor, Consigli. The building will provide over 330,000 rentable square feet across 6 levels of tenant space in addition to 5 Levels of parking built into the sloping grade of the site. Code Red Consultants worked alongside Consigli to develop and implement a complex and ever-changing NFPA 241 Fire Prevention Program starting at the infancy of the project from existing building demolition through occupancy and tenant fit-out to allow for safe operations to be conducted and provide key information at milestones to the Authorities Having Jurisdiction. As the project neared completion Code Red Consultants worked alongside the Consigli team on behalf of BXP as the project Smoke Control Special Inspector to ensure the buildings stair and elevator pressurization systems were installed and commissioned in accordance with the requirements of the City of Waltham. Code Red Consultants also consulted with BXP on the installation of firestop systems in accordance with the appropriate UL Listings.

Additionally, Code Red Consultants served as the fire protection and life safety code consultant for the fit-out Architect, Jacobs Engineering, on the 5th and 6th Floors for the new tenants, Dragonfly and Skyhawk Therapeutics. Key design features included implementing new egress strategies, construction of new high-hazard chemical storage rooms, maximization of the planned base building control area strategy, and coordination for multi-tenant floors.

Winthrop Center – Boston, MA

Winthrop Center is a new state of the art 53-story, 1.8 million square foot mixed-use residential development located in downtown Boston, MA. The building contains commercial office space on Floors 6-26, residences on Floors 35-62, below grade parking, amenity areas, and an impressive ground floor public atrium known as the Connector. Winthrop Center is the largest Passive House office project in the world, surpassing LEED Platinum to set the most rigorous global standards for energy and efficiency.

Code Red Consultants worked closely with Suffolk Construction Company and Millennium Partners during the construction phase of the project to navigate the life safety inspection and approval processes with Boston Inspectional Services Department (ISD) and the Fire Department (BFD). Specifically, we served as the phased occupancy/turnover consultant, Construction Fire Safety Consultant, Firestopping Special Inspector, and Smoke Control Special Inspector.

Code Red Consultants worked with Millennium Partners in the development of a Phased Occupancy Plan for the building (including phasing of the fire alarm system) which helped to allow the building to open on time with ongoing Connector/upper floor construction while maintaining the necessary levels of fire protection and life safety for the building.

In conjunction with Suffolk Construction, we worked to develop a comprehensive NFPA 241, Construction Fire Safety Program to ensure the project was completed on time while mitigating the risk of fire during construction. Code Red also worked with Millennium Partners to develop and implement an owner’s master construction fire safety program that allowed for building occupancy with continued ongoing base building work.

In serving as both the Firestopping and Smoke Control Special Inspector, our scope was to confirm that all fire rated joint assemblies and penetrations of passive fire rated barriers had been appropriately installed and the buildings stair pressurization, below-grade smoke control, and atrium smoke control systems were adequately installed, commissioned, and integrated ensuring a fire safe environment for building occupants.

90 Arboretum, Newington, NH

90 Arboretum, located within the Pease International Tradeport, is the first all new mass timber office building in New Hampshire. At 72,000 sf and three stories tall, the Class A office building uses cross-laminated timber (CLT) walls and floors and glulam beams and columns for its structure, as well as floor-to-ceiling windows, to achieve a forward-thinking structure with plenty of exposed wood and natural light.

Code Red Consultants served as the fire and life safety code consultant on the project and was responsible for developing the overall code approach for the building, including preliminary meetings with the Newington building officials and NH State Fire Marshal to help secure the ability to use the 2015 International Building Code (not yet adopted in NH at the time) to facilitate the allowance of mass timber on the project.
