[quote=Anonymous]Shepherd's renovation is primarily doing three things.

1. Building a very large atrium in what was once an open-air courtyard. And I believe adding a new "welcome center" in that atrium.

2. Adding an elevator (something that was supposed to happen in a 2008 renovation? But... Didn't? Who knows why. I would think an elevator would be part of ADA compliance and already there since the ADA was passed in... When was that--1993?

3.) Moving the art and music rooms to the second floor. Because the art room had to have an in-room kiln, (you know, like all art rooms do), there was the additional cost of adding steel support beams to the existing 50s building.

Now, those are the choices that someone made, instead of putting in a cafeteria or a gulym or even underground parking. It seems to me that if we are going to talk about these renovations logically, it is fair to ask what the hell was being smoked during this decision-making plan.

I don't know as much about Murch's renovation, but I assume it has similar brilliant planning in it.[/quote]
