Two office towers, one 50 stories and the other 29 stories, share a podium with a district cooling system plant in between. With more than 20 cooling towers in the works, the plant will have propeller fan blades located fewer than four feet from the towers' glass curtain walls. To minimize noise, we recommended a laminated glass system for the curtain wall that is recommended for low-frequency noise. A manufacturer was also found whose cooling towers are quieter than most. These will be used in building the plant.
