Overview
The 160,000 GSF Natty Boh Tower is a mixed-use, adaptive re-use building. The newly renovated building includes a mini-storage tenant, daycare, offices and residences on the upper floors. The project was designed in compliance with Maryland Historic Tax Credits regulations which, among other things, restrict the number of new openings (windows and louvers) that can be made in the façade and the amount of exterior wall that can have insulation applied to it. This project was designed to achieve LEED Silver with an additional 25 percent more energy savings in order to meet the standards of the new Maryland Green Building Tax Credit Program. The Natty Boh Tower is the first project to be designed under the HTC and the new Maryland Green Building Tax Credit Program, two rebate programs that are advantageous to the developer.
