HHL Architects designed a solution for a project that required the total renovation of this turn-of-the-century urban school campus to accommodate co-education as well as new educational concepts and a curriculum for 600 students in grades 5-12.

The design minimized new construction and maximized better utilization of existing space resulting in major changes of use to most of the school’s larger spaces. Accelerated design and construction document scheduling enabled the construction work to be completed during the three-month summer recess, a full year ahead of the school’s original target date.
