Description
The project includes total renovation and rehabilitation of a high school
built in 1937. The original structure is a combination of single-story
ancillary wings and a three-story main building totaling 174,000 square
feet. About 75,000 square feet of the original structure was demolished
and 67,000 square feet of new construction is added in locations to optimize
space utilization.
The finished project includes 166,000 square feet of educational facility
space and 180,000 square feet gross floor space. Old plumbing, mechanical
and electrical systems have been completely removed and new modern systems
installed. The renovated facility is designed to house 1,200 high school
students in an educational program developed around the “school within
a school” concept.
The project includes an 11,000-square-foot student commons, cafeteria,
entry/lobby. This will be a multi-use space serving as a monumental entry
lobby to the building, including an in-house theater, gymnasium and other
facilities. The new 16,000-square-foot gymnasium includes three basketball
courts and bleacher seating for 2,000 spectators.
The theater is renovated space converting an older auditorium to a state-of-the-art
theater for theatrical performance. The seat deck will be reshaped to
optimize sight lines and create a formal orchestra pit. The completed
theater will seat 780, with all seats enjoying premium sight lines.
Principal construction materials include reinforced concrete, structural
steel and long-span steel joists. The 17-acre site is being completely
regraded to provide five tennis courts and fields for soccer, football,
baseball and softball. Parking will be provided for about 380 cars.
