FWA | CPCC Information Technologies

This six-story building satisfies the complex requirements of the College's Information Technology Department. Additional departments in the new building include the College Without Walls distance learning program, Corporate Continuing Education instruction, and classroom spaces for all campus departments. To take advantage of its location on two prominent streets, a portion of the ground floor is devoted to a restaurant and other retail uses.

Numerous sustainable design features were incorporated into the new IT Building using the LEED Rating System and Triangle J. Council High Performance Guidelines as the basis of design. The design team embraced the approach, while not formally engaging in either program, in order to achieve the best potential value investment to the owner.

The location for the new building was a tight site adjacent to the student-parking garage and required a six-story solution. The building shields the parking deck from view of the surrounding neighborhood and provides an exterior design in harmony with the new traditional aesthetic for campus buildings. The building was designed to expand by 100,000 square feet in a similar form blocking the remainder of the parking deck.
