SITE TOUR - Grant High School Modernization

PLEASE JOIN CMAA AND PORTLAND PUBLIC SCHOOLS FOR A TOUR OF THE GRANT HIGH SCHOOL MODERNIZATION PROJECTGrant High School is the 3rd Portland Public School high school being modernized as part of the 2012 School Building Improvement Bond. Grant's modernization will completely reconfigure and update learning spaces with a focus on indoor environmental quality, sustainability and historic preservation. Construction began in the summer of 2017 and students are scheduled to return to a modernized Grant HS in the fall of 2019.   GRANT MODERNIZATION HIGHLIGHTS * A welcoming three-story common area providing a community gathering space * New spaces for career and project-based learning where students will dream, design, and create * A new athletic building featuring a gym that accommodates up to 1700 students for assemblies, an auxiliary gym and weight room * Flexible learning spaces for collaborative and individualized learning * Outdoor learning spaces and courtyards * Student-based health center and teen parent clinic   WHERE ARE WE IN THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS? The school is now just over half way through the construction process. Crews have completed a significant amount of the structural and seismic work. This can be seen in the amount of steel erected and concrete poured. We  have crews working on almost every inch of the project whether on the upgrade of the 1923 brick façade, the roofs, polishing concrete floors, building the new gym or laying mechanical, electrical, and plumbing, and framing/drywall throughout the building.   TEAM: Owner - Portland Public Schools Owner's Representative PM – CBRE | HEERY Architect -  Contractor -    PROJECT FACTS:   Total Project Cost: $150.6 Million Construction Start: Summer 2017 Construction Completed: Summer 2019 Building Opening: Fall 2019 Delivery Methods:   Andersen Colas Construction joint venture team is the CM/GC contractor for the modernization of Grant High School.   SAFETY REQUIREMENTS: All guests are required to wear long pants and closed toe shoes that should include a leather upper with a hard sole (work boots or hiking boots).
