Franklin County Highway Garage Expansion & Modernization
What Was the Challenge?
Franklin County needed to expand and modernize its existing Highway Garage to better accommodate operations and provide improved facilities for its staff. The project required designing new spaces, updating the interior, and ensuring a cohesive appearance for the expanded and renovated structure, all while minimizing disruptions to the facility’s operations.
How Did Barton & Loguidice Provide a Solution?
B&L designed a 2,400-square-foot office addition and a 4,400-square-foot covered open storage space, seamlessly integrating them with the existing Highway Garage. The project also included interior renovations, including a renovated restroom with a shower, installation of overhead doors, and a new fire alarm system throughout the facility. To improve natural lighting, a translucent paneling system was installed to replace the outdated glass block windows. For aesthetic and functional consistency, the exterior of the existing facility was recladded with a metal paneling system that matched the new office addition.
Why Was This Project a Success?
Barton & Loguidice’s design addressed Franklin County’s operational needs while modernizing the Highway Garage. The cohesive integration of the office addition and storage space with the existing facility, combined with the interior and exterior upgrades, enhanced the building’s functionality and aesthetic appeal. The result is a modernized facility that meets the County’s needs for expanded space, improved usability, and a uniform, professional appearance.
