The Coon Rapids Maintenance Facility project was a straight forward addition for heated storage. The existing building was a precast structure and the new addition was designed to match its concrete panels.
Kodet Architectural Group added a mezzanine as well as other interior amenities to make the building function better. In addition, energy efficient heating and ventilation systems were a part of the overall design.
One of the key elements was to design the facility to accommodate bad soil conditions. Located on an extremely flat site, the design took into account drainage and environmental concerns.
The building was modular in nature, which provided for cost saving and ease of construction. Final cost was 21% under budget and the building was completed for early occupancy.
Kodet also worked with the City of Coon Rapids to design a garage addition that includes heated storage and vehicle repair space. Kodet remodeled the existing building to provide better storage and more staff support areas.
