Project NarrativePerkins+Will was commissioned to totally renovate and expand Long Middle School for the Atlanta Public School system to accommodate 900 students. We reorganized the building to have a 6th grade cluster, 7th grade cluster, and 8th grade cluster. Each grade level has 9 general classrooms, 3 science rooms, a foreign language classroom, and a special education resource room as well as teacher workroom space and administrative areas.

To create the clusters we added a third floor on the main part of the building. Respecting the structural integrity of the original building, we posted up with new steel columns on the original building's exposed piers. Sun screens hang between the columns on the south side of the building.

Renovation of the kitchen, cafeteria, art and music rooms, gymnasium, and media center with new interactive labs is included in our design.

Building ExteriorCrawford Long Middle School is located at the end of a cul de sac. The building is sited below the entry drive. Prior to adding an additional floor, the view when approaching the school was of the roof. Now with a third floor, the school has a much improved scale and presence from the street. Before

The original school was a two story brick and concrete building with an exposed exterior structure. In order to respect the structural integrity of the original design, we added a third floor and posted up with new steel columns on the original exposed piers.

Building ExteriorThe building was completely reglazed, restoring the original ribbon window design that had been compromised over the years by infill panels and exterior wall hung mechanical units. The north facing storefront in the cafeteria was also increased to create more views into the school and providing lots of natural light.
