Penn National Insurance

The office building has a six-story base with a nine-story tower. The architecture is in the tradition of American skyscraper designs by Louis Sullivan, with punched windows and prominent vertical columns. The exterior material is precast concrete. The concrete is finished with a range of light sandblasting to enhance the design.

The building vestibule and lobby have shaped ceilings and special lighting. The finishes include wood, patterned floors in porcelain and stone tiles, gypsum wall board with special coatings, and broadloom carpet in the waiting area and at the reception desk. The elevator lobbies throughout use matching materials. The elevator cabs have porcelain tile floors, wood panel walls and custom ceilings. The elevator doors have a custom metal finish. Typical office floors have carpet tiles, gypsum wall board walls, and 2’ x 4’ tegular lay-in ceilings. Service areas have hard floors, hard walls and 2’ x 4’ ceilings. Special spaces have broadloom carpet in lieu of carpet tiles, where appropriate, other floors may be vinyl tile or monolithic poured floors. The Board Room in particular has wood and broadloom carpet floors, and walls finished with wood and fabric panels.

The 762 car parking garage is faced with brick, with precast concrete trim to match the office building. The ground floor retail shops have windows similar to the ground floor of the office tower.
