New athletic center (con’t) Historical Integrity Designed by the Washington, DC architectural firm of Bowie Gridley Associates in conjunction with the athletic program-planning firm of Brailsford & Dunlavey, also from Washington D C, the new center captures the historical integrity of the <strong>Baldwin</strong> campus while providing the school community with a beautiful facility that enables all students to participate fully in an outstanding athletics and physical education program. The brick, stone and glass exterior of the center are compatible aesthetically with other structures on campus, articulating elements of the Victorian style of the historic Residence building, formerly the Bryn Mawr Hotel, designed by Mr. Furness and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Eco-Friendly The 48,000 square-foot center incorporates a sixlane pool, a one-and one-half basketball/volleyball court, an indoor jogging track, a fitness center, four squash courts, locker rooms, offices, five tennis courts and a playing field. It also incorporates several eco-friendly design and construction initiatives, including a storm water management plan that captures 90 percent of the annual rainfall, solar reflectance roofing, the use of regionally extracted materials, the installation of Energy Star equipment and appliances, and an indoor air quality management system.
