Blending Historic and Modern at Marina Middle School
Marina Middle School in San Francisco was a massive project that had to be completed all within one academic summer. SFUSD and Bartos Architecture had previously attempted to bid and schedule this project unsuccessfully and Winco West LLC and Pinguelo Construction were brought in to develop a plan that would allow all 447 openings with 5 different building substrates, 4 different window series, some arched openings, some automatic operators, some Suntuitive glass, some clerestories and innumerable other complexities to all be completed during one summer. The plan that was developed involved bidding the project early in the fall with delivery in mid-winter to the large parking lot behind the school. Pinguelo Construction used that space to prep panning and receptor systems so that the moment in June that access to the school was available, we would be ready.
Originally built between 1935 and 1939 with New Deal federal Public Works Administration grants, Marina Middle School has an imposing neo-classical and art-deco facade with engraved references to Western philosophers and scholars.
