Commons Apartment Complex P-Street Sprinkler Upgrades
Project Overview
The Phase II residences, also known as “The Commons” or “The New”, is a wood-framed apartment complex located on the northwest side of the campus, built in the early 1980, featuring apartment-style living. The complex is composed of four buildings, K-Street, M-Street, P-Street, and S-Street. Following a fire in K-Street, the college began the process of installing new sprinklers in the complex.
The first building in the complex to have sprinklers installed was K-Street. Since the buildings are full occupied during the school year and partially occupied during the summer months, a phased approach to completing the work was determined the best way to upgrade the remaining buildings. Installation of sprinklers in P-Street occurred in the summer of 2019. By the end of the summer in 2020, the remaining buildings will have received sprinkler upgrades as well.
