Each firm was tasked with tackling a particular area of the school.

Drawing courtesy SITU, from the Back to School Facilities Tool Kit Brooklyn-Lab-Charter-School-3.jpeg SITU devised a new “front porch” to the school, which will guide students to two different entries. A third egress could be created by turning a window on an upper floor into a door and adding an exterior metal stair.
