Windows built to a 1959 master plan
Research Triangle Park's buildings were engineered to landscape architect Lewis Clarke's master plan after the park's 1959 founding, so window openings across RTP-area properties follow a more consistent standard than in a town with two centuries of piecemeal construction. Five companies had already located in the park by the end of 1959, and its low-rise commercial building stock reflects that same era.
Newer construction and Piedmont summer heat
Even planned, engineered buildings from RTP's early phases can carry original single-pane glazing that no longer meets today's energy-efficiency expectations, and Durham's July average high of around 89°F makes that gap add up. Knowing which construction phase of the master plan a building belongs to helps set realistic expectations for a replacement.
