Durham Tech Community College

The Durham Tech Duke Street North Renovation created new classrooms, clinics, and administrative offices on Floors 3, 4 and 5, totaling 39,000 SF. The existing building was a 5 story steel frame, brick veneer office building, built in 1985. The building was partially occupied on the first and second floors. The project included classrooms, clinics and practice rooms for cosmetology, manicures, massage, and barbering. This project had some complexities—coordination of LL work on the core & shell, relocating and reusing casework and fixtures from the existing Duke Street North building, and turning over each of the floors in phases via stocking permits to accommodate installation of cosmetology equipment which will require PME final connections, and approval from state licensing boards in addition to Durham Inspections.
