The 50,000-square-foot Noel Education Center at Cunningham Children’s Home in Urbana, Illinois, supports therapeutic educational programming for children with serious emotional and behavioral disabilities. The new facility consolidates and replaces the day and resdiential schools, gymnasium, cafeteria, and administrative offices, which were previously housed in substandard, older buildings. Site improvements included a new campus gateway, expanded parking, and outdoor recreation areas. The project also incorporated a number of sustainable design features, including daylighting, a high-efficiency VRF heating and cooling system, recycled and renewable materials, and a rooftop solar array.
