The existing building, which originally contained one courtroom, now has three courtrooms, judges’ chambers, clerical spaces, jury assembly areas, and other relevant public support spaces. Ready for the future, the project is LEED gold certified.

Preservation Does Good
 
Page & Turnbull was Architect and Preservation Architect for the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the former Capitol Park Hotel into the  Saint Clare, a supportive housing community of 134 apartments in downtown Sacramento. In addition to this CPF award, the St. Clare has been recognized by AIA California, Sacramento Business Journal, and ENR-California.
 
The St. Clare is comprised of two separate, adjacent hotels built in the early 1910s and combined into a single building in the 1933. This project provides safe and energy efficient studio apartments, in a seismically strengthened, code compliant building. There is on-site counseling services, laundry, a management office, and communal space. The St. Clare used federal historic rehabilitation tax credits and employed the California Historical Building Code to protect important historic features of the building. The project exceeded California T-24 energy requirements and will be Greenpoint certified.

Associate Principal, Elisa Hernandez Skaggs, AIA, was invited to be a presenter at the Princeton University School of Architecture’s Latinas in Architecture Summit. The Summit, held March 21– 22, invited 43 Latina architects and 13 students from across the country to share their stories and celebrate their successes as leaders in the profession. Latinas represent less than 1% of all architects in the United States and the hope of this Summit is to encourage more Latina girls and young women to pursue careers in architecture



@elisaskaggs says:



I grew up in the South Plains of Texas in a neighborhood where only a handful of my peers pursued higher education. So, spending a couple of days at Princeton University, attending the Latinas in Architecture Summit, and hearing the stories of Latina architects from across the country, was inspiring. We are strong, tenacious, and we will “Lift as We Climb.” I am thankful to work for a firm that supports my engagement in events such as this. - Elisa Hernandez Skaggs, AIA.

@elisaskaggs dice: Crecí en las Llanuras del Sur de Texas, en un barrio donde sólo un pocos de mis compañeros siguieron estudios en la universidad. Así que, pasarme un par de días en la Universidad de Princeton, asistiendo a la Cumbre de Latinas en Arquitectura, y escuchando las historias de arquitectas latinas de todo el país, fue inspirador. Somos fuertes, tenaces, y «levantaremos mientras subimos». Estoy agradecida de trabajar para una empresa que apoya mi participación en eventos como este. - Elisa Hernández Skaggs, AIA
