St. Louis-based McCarthy, alongside Royal Oak, Michigan-based architect HED, will build a new athletic complex for East Los Angeles Community College , according to a July 2 news release from the contractor. The facility will cost $145 million , per HED.
The 110,000-square-foot build, known as the Kinesiology, Wellness, and Athletic Complex, will act as the anchor for a Student Wellness Village as a counterpart to the Student Success Village centered around the library, per the release.
The design approach for the facility draws inspiration from the healing power of nature to fulfill the vision of a model for wellness and health, per McCarthy.
“This building will be an important part of ELAC’s future, and we are thankful that Build LACCD has trusted our team with their vision for the future of this campus,” said Nate Huntley, project director for McCarthy, in the release.
Located at the intersection of two main vehicular access points along Avenida Cesar Chavez and Bleakwood Avenue, the new structure will replace what is currently a parking lot , according to Urbanize LA. The college’s most recent expansion prior to this is a $55 million humanities building , per the outlet.
The project will be complete and occupied by 2029, McCarthy said in the release.
