A new middle school campus was constructed in the City of San Pablo to replace the former 1949 middle school. The new campus includes three two-story classroom buildings, administration offices, library, gymnasium complex, multipurpose/ cafeteria building, and a "community project" building. New fields were constructed on the site of the former school buildings as a separate project after students were moved into the new school.
A site master plan organizes the site to provide for the school sports program, play and recreation areas, community uses, parking and recycling center. The basic ideas for the site include terracing to allow for water penetration and retention, and an outdoor amphitheater. The use of edible and drought resistant landscaping, where appropriate, was included in the master plan for the site.
Berkeley Daily PlanetJust look at this place, it's breathtaking. You walk in here and realize that a lot of time and thought and craft went into it. You walk in to eat and you pause for a moment, and that matters.
