Gibbs Gage Architects Awarded 2011 Alberta Masonry Design Award of Merit
May 26, 2011
We are very excited to announce that The Masonry Contractors Association of Alberta (MCAA) presented Connaught School with the Award of Merit - Restoration. The awards are presented every four years and acknowledge excellence, innovation and design in the use of masonry in Alberta construction.
Built in 1911, Connaught School is one of the oldest operating schools within Calgary. Its multicultural approach to excellence serves the community through unique programs and corporate partnerships. The restoration and expansion consisted of modernization of an existing three storey sandstone school building and gymnasium which included a complete mechanical and electrical over-hall, as well as redevelopment of space allocation. Masonry was used to preserve the heritage of the building while maintaining a sense of permanence and quality to the community and surrounding areas.
