IRSC Tomeu Center

This building houses IRSC’s adult education program including GED, English as a second language, and adult high school classes. The three-story 47,000 sf facility is centered on an open three-story atrium with full-height glass curtainwalls sloping outward as they rise. In addition to classrooms, the building includes counselor offices, conference rooms, staff offices, testing areas, skills labs, and a cyber cafe where students are able to access the internet while enjoying a snack between classes. The project also included modifications to existing parking areas along with a new parking lot. The building was constructed of a prestressed concrete joist structural system with exterior masonry and curtainwall veneer.
