From inception, the NIBTT team together with Bouygues Batiment Trinidad and Tobago Construction Company Limited and WSP Caribbean Limited envisioned an iconic structure that would redefine the building industry of Trinidad and Tobago through the implementation of sustainable operations to decrease the impact on the environment and improve the quality of life of its occupants and neighbouring community.

The outcome is 99,780 square feet of highly interactive and efficiently operated corporate, commercial and retail spaces. These are contained within five (5) floors conducive to working SMART and enhancing overall wellbeing and wellness.

In defining these innovative workspaces, the team strategised on areas such as potable water reduction, energy consumption and indoor air quality.

This building reflects NIBTT’s commitment to a sustainable environment and the National Insurance System. It was designed with the capacity to house all of the organisation’s business units ensuring that NIBTT will be saving on rentals, overheads and operating costs. The viability of the National Insurance Fund is dependent on a positive return from this investment.
