May 2001 - This month construction begins on the final phase of
construction for improvements to the athletic and dramatic arts facilities
for the Wooster School, an independent day school in Danbury. Early in
1998, Tai Soo Kim Partners was invited to develop a plan for expanding
the school's athletic and dramatic arts facilities. The resulting plan
called for an additional gymnasium, and a small stage in the existing gym
to be separated from the gymnasium and reoriented to provide its own entrance
and sense of place within the facility.
Renovations creating the small theater were completed in 2000 and ground
breaking on the new gymnasium begins in May of 2001. The new construction
will front the existing structure and provide a complete new facade along
the campus drive as well as a new lobby and support facilities for the
entire structure. Tai Soo Kim Partners is pleased to have been challenged
by the Wooster School to design these improvements that will serve the
students for years to come.
