Creating Industrial Space for Innovators

We at TAIT are dedicated to designing spaces for industrial innovators to produce their products. Content:

Over the past 50 years, we have seen a great deal of change in the business world. One thing that remains the same is the need for businesses to produce their products. At TAIT, we have designed several major industrial facilities and distribution centers where innovative companies are able to create and distribute their products. These centers include office buildings, distribution centers, and because of the nature of our clients, often require increased and special security measures.

The Press
Costa Mesa, CA
As Master Engineer for one of the County of Orange’s largest repositioning projects, TAIT provided not only Civil Engineering and Infrastructure input and design, but also provided the Developer Entitlement Services and Municipality Coordination. Once a newsroom, printing press and distribution facility for the LA Times, The Press has been reimagined as a creative work campus and food hall. The reinvention of this building celebrates the history and character of the industrial space. The revitalized space is divided into five sections, each with unique industrial details salvaged and restored from the original structure, as well as modern architectural features that highlight the site’s rich history.
Environmental Due Diligence Review
TAIT’s environmental services include providing due diligence review for clients needing a second opinion on environmental issues of a project site. One good example of this type of service involved TAIT being contracted by a land developer to review the environmental issues at a former oil field in Southern California. The developer wanted a second opinion on whether the property could clear environmental hurdles for residential development. (more…)
