OVERVIEW
The COLBORNE ARCHITECTURAL GROUP Pacific was commissioned to design a major seismic and general upgrade to this large secondary school (330,000 sq. ft.). Five separate heritage-designated buildings were involved in the project. Major systems upgrades and functional upgrades were also included in the project scope. A number of classroom and shop areas were relocated or replaced in order to consolidate school functions within a smaller operational footprint. The school auditorium also underwent a major upgrade.
