Western
Asset specializes in fixed-income management for institutional
investors. As part of their expansion in California, Syska Hennessy
Group was selected to design and commission a new 170,000 sq.
ft. facility within a high-rise building in Pasadena, CA.
As
Program Manager for the project we designed the new space with
a 10,000 sq. ft. trading floor and redundant 3,000 sq. ft. data
center. Included in the design was executive and support space
for employees and traders. The critical facility space
included a new UPS, chiller, backup DX units and dual source
feeds from Pasadena Water & Power.

services focused on the 3,000 sq. ft. data center. The
Commissioning Program for Western Asset included:

performance of equipment and systems as an integrated system.
