Strada is taking active measures to ensure the health of our Team Members and also to assist in fighting the spread of COVID-19.
Effective March 17, 2020, Strada is closing our physical offices in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia and we will continue to operate remotely. We anticipate returning to our offices on April 30, 2020 but will update our plans as new information becomes available.
Meetings will 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 the two-week school and business closings our staff may be active at various times throughout the day and evening, so please bear with us as we make every effort to stay on schedule and in contact with our clients and business colleagues.
The University engaged Strada to plan and design this 25,400-SF building that houses the University Police and Environmental Health and Safety Departments. A campus-wide security system that includes video monitoring and rapid emergency response is run from the state-of-the-art command center, with covered parking for various police vehicles.
In addition, classroom space allows for training and collaboration of the police force, while a new fitness center provides a space for weight training. The Public Safety Building provided the police department with a valuable visual presence and effective headquarters at the entrance to the Oakland campus. The building also serves as a county 911 emergency center.
