Description.
The Houston Community College – Northeast Campus Academic Center, designed by STOA Architects, features a contemporary design focused on collaboration, innovation, and sustainability, creating an inspiring environment for higher learning.
This building is the first of six facilities planned for this complex. The school will provide services for 6,000 additional students. In addition to the workforce training, academic transfer courses, and corporate and continuing education, the facility has a full-service library, high tech open computer labs, a student life center, classrooms, child care facility, auditorium, training centers, and a Truck Driving School.
The site work for this project was extensive because it included infrastructure for a 66-acre campus to be built over the next 10 years. The site work also includes a 3, 100-foot-long truck track for the Truck Driving School and detention pond for the drainage system.
