Advanced technology systems were provided for in the video conferencing and large training rooms. Additional designs include underfloor air distribution with energy recovery wheels to reduce cooling loads, a chiller plant with capability of providing \u201cfree\u201d cooling water in the winter, outdoor walking paths, three ponds, and an amphitheater.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">There is an advanced stairwell pressurization system using large coiling fire doors with monitoring and controls for the fire department. A secure perimeter utilizes card readers and digital cameras and a secure vestibule is used for entry into the data center.
