A New Standard for Healthy Workplaces

At HALL Park, we believe the future of the workplace is built around people. That commitment was recently recognized with an important milestone: The Tower at HALL Park has earned Fitwel One-Star Certification, a globally recognized standard for buildings that support occupant health and wellbeing.

Fitwel certification highlights buildings that are designed to promote healthier, more productive environments through thoughtful design, wellness-focused amenities, and access to outdoor space. Achieving this certification reinforces The Tower’s position as one of the most forward-thinking office environments in Frisco, Texas, and reflects HALL Park’s ongoing commitment to creating workplaces where businesses, as well as their employees can thrive.

What is a Fitwel Certification?

Fitwel is a globally recognized building certification system designed to support healthier workplaces and communities. Originally developed through research by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the General Services Administration (GSA), the Fitwel standard evaluates buildings based on how effectively they promote occupant wellbeing.

Fitwel-certified buildings incorporate strategies that encourage healthy behaviors and improve the overall experience for tenants and visitors. These strategies often include:

• Access to outdoor spaces and green environments
• Walkable campus design that encourages physical activity
• Healthy dining and food access
• Indoor environmental quality
• Amenities that support wellness and community

By meeting Fitwel standards, The Tower at HALL Park demonstrates a commitment to creating an environment that supports the health, productivity, and satisfaction of the people who work there every day.

Why Workplace Wellness Matters More Than Ever?

Across industries, companies are placing greater emphasis on employee wellbeing and workplace experience. As organizations rethink how their teams work together, the quality of the workplace environment has become a key factor in attracting and retaining talent.

Research from the World Green Building Council shows strong evidence that office design directly impacts employee health, satisfaction, and productivity.

Similarly, studies examining workplace environments have found that improvements in building conditions, including air quality and environmental comfort, can lead to measurable improvements in employee health and job satisfaction.

Healthy buildings can support:

• Increased productivity
• Improved employee satisfaction
• Greater collaboration and engagement
• Reduced absenteeism
• Stronger workplace culture

Because employees represent the largest cost for most organizations, even small improvements in employee wellbeing can create significant value for companies.

These factors are driving increased demand for wellness-focused office environments, and certifications like Fitwel help companies identify buildings designed to support healthier work experiences.

Wellness-Focused Amenities at The Tower at HALL Park

The Tower’s Fitwel certification reflects a range of features and amenities that contribute to a healthier workplace experience:

Walkable Campus Environment

HALL Park is designed as a pedestrian-friendly campus, encouraging movement throughout the workday. Employees and visitors can easily walk between office buildings, restaurants, and green spaces, creating opportunities to stay active while enjoying the outdoor environment.

Walkable workplace environments help promote healthier habits and improve daily movement, both of which are key principles within wellness-focused building design.

Access to Nature & Outdoor Space

One of the defining characteristics of HALL Park is the integration of parks, landscaping, and outdoor gathering areas. Access to natural environments has been shown to support mental wellbeing, reduce stress, and enhance creativity in the workplace.

The Tower benefits from its location within the broader HALL Park campus, where employees can step outside and enjoy thoughtfully designed green spaces throughout the day.

On-Site Dining & Hospitality

HALL Park is home to a growing collection of restaurants, cafés, and hospitality experiences, giving employees convenient access to dining options without leaving campus.

These amenities support a more vibrant workplace environment and create opportunities for informal meetings, collaboration, and social interaction.

Onsite Fitness Center & Workplace Amenities That Support Wellbeing

Supporting employee wellness also means making it easy for people to stay active during the workday. The Tower at HALL Park features a modern on-site fitness center, providing tenants with convenient access to exercise and wellness facilities without leaving the building.

On-site fitness amenities encourage regular physical activity, which research shows can help improve energy levels, reduce stress, and support overall health for employees. Access to convenient fitness facilities is also a key component of many healthy building standards, including Fitwel, which recognizes the importance of promoting active lifestyles within the workplace.

By integrating a fitness center directly into the building, The Tower makes it easier for employees to incorporate wellness into their daily routines—whether that means a morning workout, a mid-day reset, or an evening exercise session before heading home.
