Funded by the 2007 bond referendum, the E.K. Powe Elementary School has recently embarked on a $2.2 million renovation of over 50,000 square feet of the building. Kenbridge Construction of Virginia serves as a general contractor, with the bulk of the design work completed by Design Collective, Inc.
The scope of work is limited to the 1926 and 1966 portions of the elementary school and includes new ceilings and interior finishes in many areas, renovated student bathrooms, new lighting and fire alarm, and repairs to mechanical systems. Exterior renovations include roof repairs and new asphalt shingle roofing, site accessibility upgrades, new site lighting, and minor landscaping.
For detail-oriented, the completion description and blueprints are available here. And here is a blueprint showing the landscaping and exterior renovations that will take place. Click to enlarge.
