Entry Foyer
Bates Elementary School had many challenges beyond bricks
and steel. This entry introduces "passengers" to the interior
nautical design elements. In addition to serving as a major architectural
focal point, this is the area where critical design and access issues
needed to be addressed. This area ties together two existing wings built
at different levels, and houses a new mechanical basement providing
required support for this "newly commissioned vessel."
