NACNew elementary school
Built into an existing hillside adjacent to a neighboring creek, new two-story elementary school required careful preservation of the wetland and creek areas while providing enhancement of the school’s Native Growth Protection Areas. Over the course of construction, more than 80% of demolition and construction waste went to recycling, which contributed to the project’s ability to exceed the equivalent of a LEED Silver project.
