Thomas B. Hagen Building - ESD Construction & Design Excellence Award

Recognized for excellence in design, engineering, and construction, Erie Insurance’s Thomas B. Hagen Building was recently awarded a prestigious Construction and Design Award from the Engineering Society of Detroit.


The Thomas B. Hagen Building “shows that companies can provide for the needs of a modern business while respecting and honoring the history of our community,” explained Mr. Hagen, Chairman of the Board for Erie Insurance.


Congratulations to the team at Erie Insurance, Albert Kahn Associates, and PJ Dick, along with the many subcontractors who helped us achieve this recognition.

The ESD awards honor the owner, designer, and constructor for outstanding achievement, superior collaboration, and innovation. Among the highlights of the Thomas B. Hagen Building are:

  • Integration of the new building into the surrounding community

  • Incorporation of sustainable features and new green spaces, such as the 20,000 sq. ft. of vegetative roof

  • Employee well-being is promoted through material choices and an incredible amount of daylight

  • Balance of focus and collaborative spaces with energizing interior design

  • State-of-the-art building systems enable this LEED Gold-designed building to remain efficient
