The addition is supported by caisson foundations and involved shoring of existing foundations. Special features include the refinishing of existing Terrazzo floors, construction of new Science Labs, Metal and Wood Shop Labs and Special Education Labs.

All mechanical systems were replaced, including new boilers with associated equipment as well as new electrical switchgear and transformers.
