The 6 level structure -- carefully upgraded in accordance to new environmental standards and Landmark Commission guidelines --- provides now flexible work spaces, new services and mechanical systems. The gallery redirects the foot traffic on the Staple Alley into the main structure of the building. A hexagonal revolving truncated cone formation affords a new transition between the geometry of the interior and exterior. The revolving hexagonal gallery becomes a new focus and hinge between the old and new projects. The gallery gyrates to incorporate a historical clerestory light, a historical circulation space for loading and the buildings new infrastructure. The relationship is played out with light The interior light and the exterior light meet as the facets of the truncated cone invert outwards towards the alley.
