I've always considered the Merrill Lynch office building in downtown It isn't. From the day it first opened in 1982 the building hasbeen plagued with an undersized heating and air conditioning system that, on anygiven day, left half the building tenants cold and the other half hot.
It also had a split lobby that often left visitors confused.Crossing the pedestrian footbridge from the lakefront, you entered the buildingon the ground level. Parking in the top level of the garage you entered on thesecond floor. Parking on the lower level of the garage, you entered a side dooron the bridge level.
The upper floor elevator lobbies were a mishmash offinishes as various owners over the years tried to put lipstick on the pig.
The newest owner, First Potomac Realty Trust, is finallydoing justice to the buildings great location. The most visible improvement isthe opening up of the first two floors creating an impressive two story lobby.They are also upgrading the buildings mechanical systems, elevator cabs, upperfloor lobbies and restrooms.
The work is scheduled to be completed in April.
