    Grange Insurance Expansion Project Completed

    Grange Insurance is officially holding the dedication ceremony of their completed $100-million headquarters expansion project in the Brewery District today. Their new development includes 250,000 square feet of additional office space that will accommodate 700 new jobs to be added gradually over the next 15-20 years. They’ve also added a new 1,000-space parking garage next door that features 15,000 square feet of new retail space along South Front Street.

    The renovations also include several new “green” features. The outside of the building has seen the installation of new high-efficiency glass with sun shade systems that work in tandem with new interior lights to adjust automatically and utilize natural light as much as possible. Rooftop gardens have also been added to better insulate the building.
