A six-story, 112,828-square-foot office building located in Decatur has been renovated to feature an outdoor plaza and new restaurant space.
Design firm Cooper Carry is the team behind the renovation of 101 West Ponce, originally built in 1992.
“Throughout this office revitalization effort, we took our design cues from Decatur Square’s energized, artistic atmosphere and created a place where people want to work,” said Gwen Kovar, associate principal at Cooper Carry. “This process challenged our team to think outside of the box. By utilizing natural materials and pops of color, we were able to create a unique office environment that seamlessly blends with the surrounding downtown fabric.”
According to a news release, key design initiatives for the renovation included:
- Creating a new arrival experience to better connect with the street and nearby public transportation, enhance building visibility and draw attention to a new outdoor plaza and modern facade
- Implementing a tenant amenity floor on the building’s lower level, with a fitness studio and communal conference facility
- Upgrading the lobby spaces with enhanced lighting, new furniture and wayfinding devices to provide an easy-to-navigate lounge for tenants and guests
- Repurposing an existing annex building that was originally intended for office use into a 5,695-square-foot standalone restaurant venue

101 West Ponce is managed by The RMR Group, a leading alternative asset management firm. Following the property renovations, 101 West welcomed two new tenants, The National Association of Chronic Disease and Aristocratic Technologies.
