Strada is taking active measures to ensure the health of our Team Members and also to assist in fighting the spread of COVID-19. We closed our physical offices in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia on March 17, 2020. We continue to operate remotely while considering CDC guidelines and recommendations to protect our team and clients for a safe reopening. We anticipate returning to our offices this summer, but will update our plans as new information becomes available.
Meetings will continue to be held virtually, via conference call or may be postponed. All of our Team Members will be working remotely under our work-from-home policy. Due to school and business closings, our staff may be active at various times throughout the day and evening. Please bear with us as we make every effort to stay on schedule and in contact with our clients and business colleagues.
Strada’s renovation of the Crowne Plaza Hotel, a 179-room property located in the hilly suburbs south of Pittsburgh, emphasizes comfort and community with open social spaces and textures inspired by the natural world. The hotel’s interiors, including its ballroom, guest rooms, restaurant and meeting areas, have all been transformed to create a guest experience that encompasses work and pleasure. Visitors are immediately welcomed by bright and warm surfaces as they enter the hotel. The new lobby radiates a clean, mid-century vibe, and includes a large communal table where guests are invited to plug in or catch up on news while enjoying a drink. In contrast, the adjacent restaurant has been remade in darker tones, with a warm and intimate mood that is complemented by an updated menu with craft beers and specialty cocktails. Design details throughout, such as floor coverings, wall treatments, and tabletops conjure familiar flora and fauna with leaf patterns and branches. The new features are not limited to indoor comforts, but also include an outdoor terrace and firepit, allowing guests to socialize and unwind at any hour.
