SUPREME COURT BUILDING AND GROUNDS
Key Accomplishments in FY 2019
In addition to the Thurgood Marshall Federal Judiciary Building exterior façade restoration (discussed in the MD&A), the jurisdiction:
Completed Garage Renovation: In June 2019, the jurisdiction completed the Marshall Building parking garage renovation that addressed water intrusion and safety matters. A new fire protection system enhances safety and new mechanical systems provide more efficient building operations.
Upgraded Infrastructure and Lighting: The jurisdiction upgraded electrical infrastructure and installed new LED lights in various office suites in the Russell Building. The new lighting is more energy efficient, offers a higher quality of light and better complements the building’s historic interiors.
Completed Window Replacements: The jurisdiction replaced windows at the Senate Employees’ Child Care Center and the Daniel Webster Page Dormitory, ensuring a watertight envelope for both structures.
Performed Modular Furniture Upgrades: The jurisdiction completed the first phase of the Hart Senate Office Building modular furniture program, which is designed to upgrade office furniture in the Hart Building while reducing government costs.
What’s Next? FY 2020 Priorities
Renovate Committee Hearing Room: The jurisdiction will make extensive renovations to the hearing room for the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Technology in the Russell Building. The project will serve as a pilot for future renovation efforts.
Execute Major Construction Projects: The jurisdiction will continue work on several projects, including the Russell Exterior Envelope Project and the Senate Underground Garage and Landscape Restoration.
2019 PERFORMANCE AND ACCOUNTABILIT Y REPORT
Developed Tenant Work Authorization: The jurisdiction developed a new business process to support Marshall Building capital improvement projects. The updated process improves transparency and accountability at all phases of funds transmittal.
What’s Next? FY 2020 Priorities
Develop New Customer Service Model: The jurisdiction plans to develop a new Marshall Building customer service model to align support to the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts with the AOC’s customer experience strategic initiative. A research and cost study will determine the best model for implementation.
U.S. BOTANIC GARDEN Key Accomplishments in FY 2019
In addition to the U.S. Botanic Garden Conservatory’s north façade and roof restorations and improved program offerings (discussed in the MD&A), the jurisdiction:
Completed Safety Upgrades: The USBG completed the safety improvements in the Conservatory’s Tropics Room. The project improved safety features — including handrails, safety screens and full foot-steps on the rungs — for the curved ladder that provides access from the catwalk to the top of the Conservatory.
Completed Production Facility Master Plan: In summer 2019, the USBG completed a limited master plan for the USBG Production Facility site renewal. The facility contains a greenhouse complex to shelter and propagate plants.
Expanded Special Programs: The USBG expanded accessible program offerings and invited teenagers and young adults with learning, cognitive and developmental disabilities to an Evening at the Garden. This sensory-friendly program offers nonpublic visit times, a “take-a-break” space and hands-on activities. In addition, a team of staff and volunteers facilitated programming for individuals with memory loss.
What’s Next? FY 2020 Priorities
Renew Production Facility: In FY 2020, the USBG intends to award a contract for the Production Facility renewal design, in line with its recently completed Master Site Plan. The project will modernize the greenhouses, address employee safety, add an urban farm and education center and improve sustainability.
