AMLI Fountain Place

A 45-story luxury tower in the heart of downtown Dallas, and the tallest addition to the city's skyline in over 30 years. We delivered the mechanical systems that keep it running.

The Project

Building Comfort Into the Dallas Skyline

Kahn Mechanical played a critical role in the ground-up construction of AMLI Fountain Place, an innovative luxury apartment tower rising 45 stories above downtown Dallas. Set beside the landmark Fountain Place skyscraper, it stands as the tallest addition to the city's skyline in more than three decades.

A residential high-rise of this scale lives or dies on its mechanical systems. Our team engineered and installed the cooling capacity and distribution that keep every floor comfortable, from the ground-floor lobby to the penthouse level, delivering the kind of quiet, dependable comfort a luxury address demands.

The Challenge

A Landmark Build With No Margin for Error

Constructing a 45-story tower in a dense downtown core is one of the most demanding environments in commercial mechanical work. Space is tight, logistics are complex, and coordination with the general contractor and other trades has to be precise, all while threading heavy equipment and thousands of feet of piping through a building still taking shape around it.

On top of that, a luxury residential tower sets a high bar for comfort. Cooling has to reach every floor evenly and run quietly, without the temperature swings or noise that residents would never accept in a premium address. The mechanical system had to be engineered for that standard from the very first drawing.

The Solution

How We Brought the Tower to Life

From the cooling plant to the last commissioning check, we delivered a complete mechanical system built for a landmark.

1
Coordination
Planned the mechanical scope alongside the build in a tight downtown site.
2
Cooling Plant
Installed 1,100 tons of cooling capacity to serve the full tower.
3
Distribution
Ran over two miles of piping to carry cooling to all 45 floors.
4
Air and Controls
Delivered even, quiet comfort to every residence and shared space.
5
Commissioning
Verified performance across the building before residents moved in.

The result is a mechanical system engineered to match the ambition of the architecture: powerful enough to condition a 45-story tower, refined enough to deliver the quiet comfort a luxury address is judged on. It is exactly the kind of high-stakes, ground-up work that has defined our mechanical construction practice since 1974.
