Lobby Renovation by DBSI Becomes a 'Project to Know'

DBSI was recently featured in AZRE’s 2018 Projects to Know in Commercial Real Estate, highlighting Arizona’s biggest design and construction projects.

DBSI completed the lobby renovation for the 12-story office building, 2020 on Central in midtown Phoenix, in 2016.

As a longtime partner, DBSI was a natural pick as the general contractor, said Janet Moodie, Chief Operating Officer for Arizona Central Credit Union.

2020 on Central houses the credit union, a fitness center, and many other businesses, so construction was completed in sections and phases to keep the lobby and elevators accessible to tenants and visitors, said DBSI project manager, Corde Kurtz. 

After removing a large fountain that formerly dominated the space, new carpeting, terrazzo flooring, furniture, light fixtures and other features was installed to create a fresh, modern space for people to meet, sit and relax. 

“It is exciting to see tenants using the new space exactly as we intended. People gather there and interact with coworkers and clients,” said Moodie. “It’s met every expectation and goal we had.”
