BERTH IV COMMERCIAL

The Berth IV Commercial building is an 18,00 sq ft, two-story wood framed building constructed primarily to house the operations of a local agency which provides assistance in shore operations of the cruise lines throughout Alaska.

​

The building is inspired by the Beegle Packing Company which once stood on this site. Towards this goal, the building uses a historically appropriate roof pitch, traditional roof dormers, wide overhangs, and exterior materials such as corrugated siding, metal roofing, and galvanized metal accents.

​

Interior structural elements include exposed heavy timber glu-laminated beams supporting the roof dormers. Finishes consist of wood framed interior windows at the private offices to share natural daylight throughout the offices, contemporary carpet and ceramic tile flooring.
