Coastal & Connected

THE POST is a unique urban coastal campus, created around an irreplaceable San Diego landmark, the former Midway United States Post Office. The concept for THE POST is inspired by the original design strength and simplicity of an envelope.

ENVELOPE:
a communication carrier allowing people to connect.

Much like the moment of excitement when opening a card or a package, THE POST evokes an emotional response, an anticipation of what’s inside and then an awe at the scale of what you have found within.

THE POST provides people with space to inspire, communicate, and connect. Its design unfolds to create moments of discovery throughout; bold concrete forms are softened with natural interventions, and rich color accents.

THE RESULT IS A MODERN AND TIMELESS ICON.

  • Landscape
    The Post is a folding and unfolding of new landscape within the existing building structure. The strong angular forms created by pathways, planting, and seating on the ground plane contrast the 1960’s brutalist architecture of the building. This softening with landscape is a key to the unique experience of The Post.
  • Linear Park
    The Linear Park is the connection between structure and landscape and is the heart of the project. The park is series of angular pathways merged with wood decks, planting, and social spaces creating an open, outdoor environment for recreation, relaxation and collaboration.
  • View from Midway Drive
    This iconic structure requires careful additions of clean glass lines, art installations, water and color elements, landscaping, and warm wood accents. Central to the design is the exploration of light and its qualities on a grand scale that is in balance with the scale of the building envelope. New architectural elements evoke an anticipation of what’s inside THE POST.
  • Outdoor Café
    The exterior café design is an extension of the interior. Providing varied types of seating, from booths, to banquette seating, to lounge furniture, small tables and even a large community table, allowing patrons to find a space that feels comfortable and creates a more relaxed ambience. The space is comfortable for lunch, with a more casual setting near the patio, as well as dinner with the lounge seating, booths, and bar. Canopy trees on the exterior bring down the scale of the space and provide shade. The glass wall is made up of large folding doors that connect the interior space to the patio and allow for the bar to serve drinks to patrons inside and out.
  • Entry / Lobby Experience
    A 50 foot high lobby featuring a sculptural gloss white stair and bridge. Light cascades down from above through skylights. A reflective reception desk and elevator tower play with light and perception, thus adding to the sense of discovery upon entering THE POST.
  • Entry Promenade
    The Entry Promenade is located on the southern edge of THE POST’s existing structure. This tree lined pedestrian plaza creates a buffer between parking, residential, and office space. This plaza has shade and space where people can mingle and cross paths on their way to and from the office, home, or a coffee break. Main entries are flanked by steel planters to both accent and anchor the space. The landscape forms of this promenade fold up onto the building and become a faceted metal shade screen, creating a new expression on the existing structure.
  • Lobby
    The lobby presents itself with a 24 foot tall structural glass wall framed in a dark bronze portal, immediately sparking curiosity. The faceted exterior screen wall dramatically soars over the entry doors, unwrapping to reveal the space within. Inside, visitors are rewarded with an unexpected palette of light, color, wood, plant life, and reflections.
  • Office First Floor
    Ground level access to the 1st floor office spaces can occur through the main lobby, secondary lobbies, and the central atrium. Tenants can take advantage these various entry points to create signature moments for engagement with staff and visitors. Daylight shines into the core of the 1st floor through atrium glass and filters deep into the floor plate due to 24’-0” clear ceiling heights. A first-floor mezzanine sits within the space and allows for greater use of the vast ceiling heights. The ground floor spaces will have adjacency to the sky atrium though large folding glass partitions creating a direct connection to the outdoors. Tenan
  • Sky Atrium
    Moving through the Lobby and stepping outside into the Sky Atrium brings one into an entirely authentic space made possible by the grandeur of the existing building structure. Strategic removal of roof and floor structure reveals an outdoor oasis within THE POST, featuring vertical gardens, a reflecting pool, and ample seating for individual retreats and group gatherings. This large opening in the building footprint also brings ample natural light to the interior tenant spaces that surround the atrium on both levels. A second-floor perimeter deck and connecting bridge allow for ease of circulation and additional exterior lounge and workspace.
  • 2nd Floor Office
    Clean and contrasting by design, the second-floor office space has potential for a diversity of work spaces. Desktop work stations meet spacious lounge environments that feature open access to roof top amenity decks. Private offices and collaboration spaces are highlighted with colored glazing. Open office areas are day-lit with skylights scattered across the concrete structure overhead. The second-floor at THE POST has 18’-0” clear ceilings promoting a sense of openness and clarity. THE POST offers opportunities for sleek interior finishes that underscore the natural beauty of the raw concrete structure.
  • Tenant Space / The Deck
    Tenant spaces within THE POST are flexible, collaborative, and highly conducive to not just work but a work lifestyle. Soaring ceiling heights of up to 25 feet, exposed concrete walls, massive open floor plates, waffle grid slab ceiling structures, skylights, second story outdoor terraces, and floor to ceiling glass, all combine in an incredibly unique environment with views to the Bay and Downtown Skyline, unlike anything else in San Diego. The potential for customized tenant use is only limited by the imagination. The experience of working at THE POST is simply one of a kind.
