The community of du- and tri-plexs on a park-like setting is geared toward active adults. Allen+Pepa Architects developed these attractive elevations that incorporate quality materials such brick, stone, and copper roofing. The roofs and elevations incorporate a variety of shapes  that will create an inviting and attractive feel to the community..

Since the budget didn’t allow for a complete restoration, our program was to limited to restoration of the lobby, mezzanine and concession areas, and each damaged area was repaired in isolation and then blended into the surroundings.  The major challenge for the restoration contractors was to seamlessly match the varying plaster textures, the multi-colored “rag” finishes, and the correct amount of gloss.

Exterior work included replacement of a structural header over the stained glass window, and sealing and tuck-pointing the façade to stop the moisture infiltration.

Utilizing our 3-d software we were able to take into account the contours of the site. The plan determined a location for a new covered walkway that would provide needed linkage between the south and north campus, where a new auditorium and cultural center is planned.
