Description

The Monroe Correctional Facility project includes a new compound for a 100-bed intensive management unit and 100-bed segregation unit to house Level 5 inmates.

The 80,000-square-foot project includes two new housing units, a core support area for medical examinations, hearing rooms, counseling areas, a library, food services, education facilities and visitation areas.

Site work includes relocating existing utilities, new parking areas and other improvements.

The two buildings will create a new compound between the Washington State Reformatory main facility and the special offenders unit.

After the compound is finished, a new access route from inside the main reformatory will be created by removing a portion of existing perimeter wall and adding a secure auto and pedestrian area.

The project is targeted to achieve a silver LEED rating from the U.S. Green Building Council.
