Background and Context
JCJ Architecture completed this multi-phased project which brings the current Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School and Breakthrough Magnet School North onto a combined campus. JCJ reimagined and renovated the facility to an As-New condition for the 2020 academic year.

Although not currently on the historic register, the 1922 Neo-Gothic Thomas Snell building is a contributing building to a historic district and as such received appropriate SHPO approvals. The facility has many features that were preserved and revitalized. The historically sensitive elements that were restored include stained and leaded glass windows, masonry façade, terrazzo corridors, columns and decorative elements in the Auditorium and Gymnasium.
