YMCA – West San Gabriel Valley

The design requirements for this project were:
Create a new daycare center for children including new classrooms, teaching kitchen, director and nurses office, computer/network access counter and related utilities
Expand and double the size of existing Gym
Add a new family shower and locker room areas
Update the parking area and related site area for compliance with ADA
Given the budget’s extreme constraint the project had to be re-programmed several times to achieve the goal of the institution for this development. In the process the expansion to the Gym was put on hold for a future phase.
Given a distinct style of the original building designed and built in the 1980,s, the same vocabulary of existing architecture was adapted to create a seamless transition between the existing and new.
