The project consists of the renovation of an existing building into the new Salvation Army Family Caring Center. The masonry exterior has been cleaned and repaired. Ground floor openings have been reduced in size using polished ground 

faced concrete masonry units and blue‐gray spandrel glass infill. A new metal entrance canopy was added.

The facility’s program includes transitional housing, education and activity space, staff offices, staff apartment, dining hall and chapel. The interior of the building was gutted and all new HVAC, electrical, plumbing, automatic 

sprinkler and elevator systems were added.

A new interior layout on the ground floor includes all new major public spaces including public lobby, dining room, kitchen, chapel, activity and educational spaces, staff offices and storage areas. The design of these spaces through the 

use of high ceilings and soft neutral and accent paint colors create a welcoming atmosphere.

Resident units are located on the second floor as well as lounges and augmented circulation spaces encourage unstructured socializing opportunities for residents and staff. The design of these spaces through the use of skylights 

and soft neutral and accent paint colors creates a welcoming atmosphere.
