In December of 2003, Turner Construction Company began the renovation of the Parker Elementary School. The project consisted of a 21,473 square foot addition and the full renovation of 62,500 square feet of existing space. The original facility was built in 1938. The new addition, designed by the DLR Group, includes a cafeteria and kitchen, a media center, an administration suite and an early childhood house. The design reflects and addresses the tight restraints of this urban community school by capturing needed green space, providing a basketball court, and introducing a more efficient parking layout. Parker Elementary School was designed for Pre-K through eighth grade with an enrollment of 475 students. Hill International managed the project. The school opened in September 2007. |
