 Location:  Collinsville, IL    |    Owner: Ameren Illinois    |    Architect:  Arcturis

Ameren Illinois Company selected Poettker Construction as the design/build contractor for its new 48,000 SF corporate office. The modern two-story facility can accommodate 225 employees. Amenities include open workspace, private executive suites and offices, and a multi-purpose auditorium with the ability to separate into three spaces.

The exterior construction consists of structural steel framing with insulated metal wall panels. To promote daylighting, nearly half of the wall space features large floor to ceiling windows.

High-end interior finishes include Technicon glass partitions and railings, wood and tile accents, and plaster waved details.

Technology innovations consist of:

• electronic controls for lighting and sound
• full-service conference rooms with dropdown screens, projectors and stationary web conferencing cameras
• video display boards in the lobby
• badge reader security system.

Unique energy efficiency elements include a solar canopy “covered” parking area to accommodate electric car charging stations.
