GREENSBORO, N.C. - June 17, 2024 - PRLog -- High Point Christian Academy (HPCA) – one of the region's premier private schools -- recently celebrated the opening of its new gymnasium dubbed "The Gym." Designed by Lindsey Architecture under a design-build contract with Samet Corporation, the 16,800-square-foot building houses an NCAA regulation sized basketball and volleyball court with two cross courts and bleachers for approximately 800 spectators, as well as two state-of-the-art LED scoreboards, sound system, and pre-game accent lighting.
The building itself is a pre-engineered metal building with metal wall panels and brick on the exterior to match the existing building, as well as a concrete slab on grade floor structure. The gym floor boasts a high-performance maple athletic flooring system featuring custom graphics and school colors. Other spaces include locker rooms, visitor changing rooms, public restrooms, a concession area, storage, mechanical/electrical rooms, and offices for the athletic director and coaches.
"We are thrilled to be able to transform HPCA's vision for their gymnasium into a high-performance event and athletic venue that the faculty, students, staff, athletes, and guests can all be proud of," stated Sam Franklin, AIA, senior project architect for Lindsey Architecture.
Lindsey Architecture provided architecture, interior design, and construction administration services. Samet Corporation served as the design-build contractor. Structural Solutions provided structural engineering services.
Home of the Cougars, HPCA hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony, coupled with a dinner and special message of gratitude and recognition, on its campus in High Point on May 9. Attendees included HPCA faculty, staff, students, design and construction partners, community members, media representatives, and others.
