Bunker Hill Community College
Chelsea, Massachusetts |
Square Footage: 32,000
Construction Cost: $3.7 million |
Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) commissioned FA+A to adapt a historic 1910 post office in Chelsea's Bellingham Square historic district that was vacant for more than ten years. FA+A redesigned the building by inserting a floor in the former mail processing space and adding a two-story addition in the back of the building. The original coffered ceiling, terrazzo floor, and large, arched windows of the grand entry were preserved. This campus accommodates over 1,000 students and includes computer, science and allied health laboratories, classrooms, a resource room, bookstore, and a meeting hall.
