FedEx Secondary 25 Sort Facility

Federal Express Corporation

Yates Construction and our joint venture partner provided preconstruction and construction services on the FedEx Secondary 25 Sort Facility. The scope of work involved the construction of a 1.3 million four-story facility consisting of modernized sort conveyors, distribution equipment, and administrative offices. The project site was once home to the Tennessee Air National Guard World War II airplane hangars. The building's design incorporates the barrel roof to emulate airplane hangars and preserve the historical look. It also features restored wood materials demoed from the original hangers made into custom furniture and used for accent walls throughout. The facility achieved LEED® Certification and features over 9,000 SF of View Dynamic Smart Glass that automatically adjusts to outdoor conditions.
