Location

Decatur, Georgia

CLIENT City of Decatur

The Beacon Municipal Court Complex is an adaptive re-use and new construction of a historic threebuilding city municipal complex. The project, totaling 84,377 SF, included a police and municipal court facility with courtroom, holding cells and 911 communications, an active living building with classrooms, a gymnasium, and a City of Decatur Schools Administration Building. The LEED Silver project also included the construction of a plaza to connect the three buildings. Three additional project scopes were added mid-project: re-routing a major artery of the city’s active storm sewer, building a two and one-half acre water retention vault below a soccer field to manage site flooding, and expanding and renovating an adjoining community pool.
