PCA performed a Property Condition Assessment of Chiquita Center, a 29-story high-rise office building at 250 East 5th Street in Cincinnati, Ohio. The property comprises a single structure totaling approximately 595,425 square feet, completed in 1984, and includes 12 elevators. PCA’s scope addressed the building’s principal architectural, structural, mechanical, and envelope systems.
The engagement included architectural, structural, and mechanical/electrical/plumbing evaluations along with a curtain wall assessment, a vertical transportation assessment, and a public records review. PCA documented observed conditions under ASTM E2018 protocols and quantified deferred maintenance and remaining-useful-life projections for the client’s reserve and capital planning. The curtain wall assessment informed envelope-replacement timing and immediate repair priorities, while the vertical transportation assessment produced a reserve estimate for elevator replacement timing. The public records review supplemented field findings with documentation context. The consolidated deliverable supported the client’s decision-making process for the property.
