North Side Community School

Cafeteria Addition

Completed 2021

 

Building from HKW’s campus Master Plan for North Side Community School, two projects were completed in 2020 as the first pieces of its implementation, the Cafeteria Addition and a new Classroom Building. The cafeteria addition and minor existing kitchen re-planning were added to the current cafeteria building to allow more table space and better serving efficiency. The addition also is designed as an ICC500-compliant storm shelter, the first storm shelter for a public school designed within the city of St. Louis. HKW planned the addition to be seamless in its relation to the other campus buildings and be undetectable as a storm shelter through the use of impact-rated curtain wall.
