Summary

This proposed facility is dedicated to the Carolina Marines, their history, heroes, and their relationship with the communities around them.  The design is based on two major themes, the formative experience a Marine undergoes while being transformed from a rough recruit into a polished soldier, and the image of an amphibious Marine, surging onto the shore.  The project is currently designed to be eligible for LEED Silver certification. 2007 AIA Honor Award – Winston-Salem Chapter.
