Career Institute North
Dallas, Texas
Fall 2023
After severe tornado damage in October 2019 left Walnut Hill Elementary unusable, the 55,000 SF building transformed into a state-of-the-art Career Institute for grades 9–12. This project includes selective demolition, a full renovation, and the addition of 110,000 SF of new construction to create an innovative learning environment. The new Institute offers a variety of in-demand, hands-on programs and serves up to 1,600 students daily from five area high schools.
