Work has started on the renovation and addition of Panhandle Community Unit School District #2 Lincolnwood Junior/Senior High School in Raymond, Illinois. S. M. Wilson is partnering with the district as the general contractor for this project, with Graham & Hyde Architects serving as the architect.
The gymnasium’s renovation includes a new court floor, roof, doors, fresh paint, LED scoreboards and scorers tables, and an upgraded HVAC system to enhance the facility’s climate control. New bleachers will also be installed to improve spectator seating. The locker rooms will also receive some attention with a total remodel of the plumbing, brand-new metal lockers, bath accessories, and lighting upgrades.
The addition of a new weight/cheer room and corridor will add about 5,000 square feet to the existing multipurpose room. The structure will tie in with the existing one, which has similar features, including interior masonry walls and exterior metal panels on top of the ground face block.
The interior will provide new athletic flooring and an open floor plan for future equipment plans, along with a storage room.
