New Roush Headquarters: Roush Racing is expected to open its new state-of-the-art world headquarters in early 2003. The three story, 83,000 square foot building will be located in Concord, N.C., on 25 acres near the Concord Regional Airport. The new corporate headquarters will consolidate several buildings and over 100 employees, currently located throughout North Carolina. The building will house departments such as sponsor operations, licensing, show car and event operations, the business office and internet marketing. JR’s Garage and Team Caliber, the collectibles and merchandising arms of Roush Racing, will also move its warehouse and distribution center to the new location. The structure will have several sustainable building systems including solar shades on southern exposure to reduce solar heat gain and glare, reducing the amount of artificial building cooling required and a system for capturing and containing rain water run off for landscape irrigation reducing the need for potable water.(Roush Racing PR)(5-30-2002)
