They feature energy efficient\, under-floor air conditioning systems that eliminate the need for air ducts and mechanical equipment in the ceiling\, which allows for higher finished ceiling heights and increased natural light. The exterior curtain walls are composed of alternating panels of floor-to-ceiling vision glass and solid panels. The height of the vision panels allows daylight to penetrate into the depth of the floors. Solid panels limit solar heat gain. Balconies are located on the top floor of both buildings. City Hall’s solid exterior wall portions are expressed as white metal panels\, while the Port Headquarters buildings are recessed color strips behind vision glass\, designed to echo the color variations found in shipping containers at the nearby Long Beach Port. While touring both buildings\, our expert will talk about the City’s Building and Safety Bureau’s and Harbor Department’s role in construction and permitting activity. \nQueen Mary\nThe retired ocean liner sailed primarily on the North Atlantic Ocean from 1936 to 1967 for the Cunard Line. The ship’s groundbreaking construction made it the most luxurious and technologically advanced ocean liner of its time. While exploring the ship from bow to stern\, and inside to out\, we will discuss how the City treats this ship as a building/structure for the purpose of permitting and construction activity. Our expert guide will talk about the various projects to restore\, rehabilitate\, and improve ADA-related compliance measures and the application of historic preservation standards. \nBus transportation included – departs at 7:00 am.
