General Description

This project involved a new addition to the existing facility, which created space for a library, cybercafé, fitness center, video conference room and large lobby, plus nursing classrooms. The clerestory and skylights allow large amounts of natural lighting into the building, low-flow plumbing fixtures reduce water consumption by 20 percent, and a series of vegetated swales and ponds filter out pollutants from runoff, earning this building LEED Certification. This project won a 2007 Ohio AIA award for newly constructed buildings.

Key Features
  • Low-flow plumbing fixtures
  • High-efficiency boilers, packaged rooftop units, sophisticated lighting controls, and high R-values for walls, windows and roof achieved a 30 percent savings in annual energy consumption
  • HVAC system with variable air volume rooftop units combined with terminal boxes with hot water reheat, finned tube radiation and hot water radiant ceiling panels
  • Occupancy sensors and light sensing meters
Our Role
