BauerLatoza <br />STUDIO <br />541 South Lake Street <br />Gary, Indiana 46403 <br />Phone 219.938.87821Fax 2 t 9.939.3877 <br />MEMO <br />Date: Jane 8"', 2007 <br />To: Catherine Hostetler <br />From: Bill I_atoza <br />Re: Marquette Primary Center— South Bend, Indiana <br />Pursuant to our meeting and walk-thru on Friday, May 4"', 1 -ranted to take the opportunity to discuss some of <br />lny findings and thoughts concerning the above referenced school. <br />I was pleased to have the opportunity to walk thru the school with you and discuss some of the issues that were <br />addressed by the teachers and the report that was prepared by Hebard & flebard. I'm in agreement with the <br />architects that the school is structurally sound and could easily and cost effectively be renovated into a state-of- <br />the-art facility. The building is in good condition, and is an excellent candidate for renovation. <br />The current heating system is close to the end of its productive life along with the pneumatic controls. These <br />items will need to be replaced. The interstitial space between the roof and the second floor would provide the <br />space necessary to install ducts for a new HVAC system and would provide the school with the type of heating <br />and cooling they desire. Electrical upgrades for the building should also be done at this time and would not pose <br />any problems or additional expenses to retrofit. <br />As we discussed, the windows could either be restored or replaced — the costs being equal and the windows that <br />we have recently restored on our numerous Chicago Public School projects have shown to be as energy efficient <br />as new replacement -windows. <br />Classrooms are adequate, but could simply be reconfigured if the need arose to have larger classrooms. Storage <br />is always a question in. schools, but by reconfiguring the current classroom storage areas and adding sonic <br />additional cabinets and closets, the future needs of the teachers could be met. <br />Based on my -walk-thru - Marquette School could be renovated for far less money than a new school -- and <br />-would perform as well — if not better than the new school that has recently been constructed. I would be pleased <br />to come back to South Bend later this month to discuss in greater detail and show drawings that would clearly <br />show how this could be done. Please let me know when you -would like ine to come down to discuss Marquette <br />School in greater detail. <br />I look forward to your response and coming down. <br />
