Littleton, CO

Why

Connecting through experience of place.

Littleton Public Schools retained RTA to assist Littleton High School (LHS) in defining and prioritizing the school's needs for renovations to their gym, auditorium, stadium, and Applied Technology Program.

How

Ever curious. Ever learning. Ever improving.

Through a highly collaborative design process, the scope was changed from a small gymnasium addition to a weight and training room addition and a reorganization of the wrestling room. The result was a high performance center that accommodates weight training as well as agility in a high visibility location that is a showcase for LHS athletics. The project also included a full renovation of the auditorium to address acoustics, lighting, accessibility and finish upgrades. The third major scope element included the reorganization of the Applied Technology Program.

What

Purposeful, engaging solutions.

The new, state-of-the-art science high performance weight training and agility center is located in a high visibility location to showcase LHS athletics. The reorganization of the Applied Technology Program included code and programmatic enhancements in the wood shop and the creation of a flexible technology classroom to support pre-engineering programs. The stadium work included concrete rehabilitation at the bleachers, field drainage improvements, fencing replacement, and the construction of an extensive ramp to provide an accessible route to the field from the school. The final scope element included a full renovation of the auditorium to address acoustics, lighting, accessibility and finish upgrades.
