APCU/Center Parc Credit Union Headquarters

Hapeville, Atlanta, GA

Located nearby the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the APCU/Center Parc Credit Union Headquarters delivers a striking first impression to those flying into Atlanta. Designed to unite both the Atlanta Postal Credit Union and Center Parc Credit Union operations in one facility, the headquarters equips both divisions for the future with 135,000 square feet of flexible workspace. The five-story office building provides ample views and daylight to employees through its impressive facade, with glass stretching across all sides of the building and curved curtain wall at the top.

A wide variety of Kawneer systems contribute to the project’s resiliency and focus on employee well-being. Kawneer’s Trifab® VersaGlaze® 451T and 601T Framing Systems and 1600 Wall System®1 Curtain Wall provide thermal performance for comfortable interiors year-round. With the office combining traffic for both the APCU and Center Parc Credit Union divisions, 500 Heavy Wall™ Entrances and 500 Standard Entrances in Wide Stile were selected to accommodate frequent use. Along with the expansive exterior facade, vestibules and interior framing were created with Trifab® VersaGlaze® 450 Framing System to carry natural light even further indoors to offices and collaborative spaces.

The building’s curved peak is enabled by 1600 Wall System®1 Curtain Wall. Requiring meticulous installation and engineering, this unique feature gives the headquarters a distinctive shape for years to come.
