This project included the complete finish out of 8,000-SF of the fourth floor of the occupied Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas at Austin. Fifteen much-needed patient rooms were added within the Transplant ICU of the teaching hospital. Each room included wood paneling casework at the head and foot of each bed. A pneumatic tube system was installed and tied in to the hospital’s network to facilitate the quick and efficient transport of medication to the unit. The finish out also featured an on-call room, staff break room, nourishment room for patient families, and medical storage.

Each classroom features state-of-the-art presentation equipment as well as fully programmable and multi-functional light fixtures. The common area includes adjustable wall panels to create a pin-up gallery for architecture and design students. The sixth floor was renovated to create functional open office space for staff.
As with most University projects, construction was performed within an occupied building and scheduling occurred around class schedules and quiet times.

FAQs – Improvements to the West Mall Building
Due to extraordinary population growth in the region, Sabre was contracted to build out the fifth-floor patient tower shell space of Seton Medical Center Hays to make room for more patients in the Kyle facility. The completed project accommodates 30 more beds and up to 60 additional employees. The added space improves Seton’s capability to treat trauma, recruit physicians and features a centralized dialysis space. In order to access the fifth-floor patient tower without using patient elevators, we were required to use a buck hoist (outdoor elevator) to deliver materials and workers to the job site.

This first generation interior finish out was completed on the fourteenth floor of Shoal Creek Walk building located in downtown Austin. The completed space includes two separate offices of sister companies as well as the elevator lobby and corridor between. Both offices were uniquely designed with each featuring high-end finishes, lighting packages, and design elements throughout. Each tenant had its own distinctive reception area, break room and conference room as well as a mixture of executive style individual offices and open office space.
This project was completed while the base building was still under construction and our team was able to work through extremely limited access to an elevator but were able to still complete the project with minimal disruption. Both offices were suited to comply with the AEGB 2-Star rated building.

Sabre Commercial was selected as the general contractor for the complete campus renovation of the historic Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Building to ready it for new tenants. This work included a facelift to lobby common areas, upgrades to the parking lot including a covered parking structure, the installation of 35 new 6’ x 6’ windows, the replacement of valves for the HVAC/DDC Controls of the building, and an upgraded fire protection system throughout the space. We also installed Michael-Hsu-designed cooling tower and generator screens (photo above) to disguise bulky HVAC equipment and provide a showpiece visible from HWY 71.
Concurrent to our work with the building owner, Sabre was selected by the tenant to renovate their space over two phases. The first phase included the 100,000 SF second floor of this building with office space, multiple conference rooms, an executive office suite, open office space, breakrooms and restrooms to accommodate 800 people. The second phase spanned 115,000 SF on the first floor, including a large industrial kitchen, cafeteria, auditorium, locker rooms, workout facilities, and open office space. The renovated building now serves as the Austin headquarters for more than 1,500 employees.
