El Centro is an urban campus in the heart of downtown Dallas and was the first campus of the Dallas County Community College District. Based on the relocation of the Nursing and Health Services programs moving to the Paramount Building as apart of the 2004 DCCCD Bond program, this project’s scope of services was to take 44,000 sq.ft of abandoned classrooms and miscellaneous space and renovate into new classrooms; reconfigure departments, offices and waiting areas associated with Student intake services; Admissions, Financial Aid, Counseling, Testing and Assessment; and a new Biology and 3 Chemistry Labs will be added.

McAfee3 provides planning and design services for the School of Medicine including redesign of laboratory facilities and administrative offices. Additionally, McAfee3 has created a gateway and streetscape into the campus complex. The gateway reflects the heritage of the institution and complements the existing campus structures. The streetscape project incorporates redesign of traffic flow and street beautification. In addition, McAfee3 was tasked with renovating the Dean’s Office and two research laboratories.

McAfee3 has built a long-term relationship with the nation’s second-largest community college district. Accommodating 146,000 students, DCCCD is comprised of 10 campuses totaling 1,500 acres and four million SF of facilities. McAfee3 designed a 22,000 SF science building on the campus of Eastfield Community College in Mesquite. This new Science Building is comprised of chemistry and biology science labs, with anatomy and microbiology labs and a conference center for campus activities. After the science department moved into the new building, which McAfee3 designed, and then renovated 13,000 SF of existing labs in Building C. Redesign included a new geology physics lab, computer classrooms, and faculty offices for the math and science divisions.

Also a part of this project was the addition and renovation of locker rooms, weight room, classrooms, updated furniture, fixtures and equipment and a new single point of entry into the Physical Education building.
