rOSWELL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICES CENTER

ROSWELL, NM

The Roswell Independent School District historic building was constructed in 1929 as Roswell's Junior High School and is an important building to preserve for the community. Over its 92-year history, some partitions have been added, but the building overall remains intact, housing classrooms, and offices. To facilitate the needs of the new RISD administrators who will be using the space, the building will require some contemporary updates. The project's main objective is to upgrade the building's infrastructure, particularly its HVAC system, roofing, and windows, to ensure a comfortable and energy-efficient environment while preserving the historic elements and charm of this beloved building.

Some of these updates in the "old wing" of the building include new ceiling-mounted fan coil units (FCUs) installed in newly suspended ceiling areas with concealed ductwork, updated lighting fixtures, new energy-efficient windows that still retains historical character, an updated chiller and boiler, and a new code-compliant fire sprinkler system.
