This school, built in 1911 in the Shaw neighborhood, no longer met current educational needs: it had obsolete systems, lacked a library, gymnasium, art and science rooms, and was not handicapped accessible. We reinvigorated the school with a new addition which is separated from this historic building by a glass and steel circulation zone. The design created new ground-floor space for the library, computer and music rooms, updated high-ceilinged classrooms, and integrated state-of-the-art systems into the existing architecture.
