AT&T Discovery District

Transformation of AT&T’s downtown headquarters into an urban park, including several new restaurants and shopping venues, a food hall, as well as a media showcase for the Owner, including an immersive video experience in the lobby, a seven-story media wall, multiple locations for concert and live events, site mega fountain system, site stage facility, site mega canopy system, and decorative/interactive site facility and grounds modifications.

Besides completing the MEP design, our firm provided Energy Services by identifying and suggesting various energy and sustainable MEP system types to the Owner and utilized high-level energy modeling to forecast building energy consumption. DFW also integrated sustainable design strategies into the schematic design and forecasted achievable LEED Sites points.

Significant impacts to the project were in energy-efficient exterior lighting design, media wall cooling, lobby cooling systems for LED panels, control of interior ventilation, and water conservation through efficient irrigation and HVAC condensate water reclamation.
