2.Ground Floor – A housemother’s apartment is established where once there were a weight room and a small room with an existing bathroom. Added are a laundry area for the housemother and ADA student(s), and an ADA accessible restroom. The storage area on the west wall will be split into half storage and half treasury.
3. First Floor – Two senior/officer quads with sleeping- study –bathroom are developed from four study rooms. One quad will accommodate an ADA student(s). For meeting fire codes the stairwell is separated from the hall and library/lounge area by fire doors. A guest restroom is added. An enclosed entrance ADA lift on the eastside of the house will access the ground floor and first floor. Also added is a lounge/ game room adjacent to the living room. Numerous alternatives to the ADA lift were investigated. This shown choice was the most efficient way of connecting the two floors without loss of pantry space and of limiting unintentional mechanical damage.
4. Second Floor – The laundry area that is currently in the shower area has been moved to the basement allowing for expansion of the showering area.
5.Third Floor – Added will be two study rooms (the sick room shown in the “new third floor” will be a study room). The sleeping porch area will be reduced from in size since the new design for the house is for 50-55 men instead of the 80 the house was originally designed for.
6. Roof -Added will be an insulated ceiling, two dormers on the north side of the sleeping porch for cross ventilation. Roofing will be replaced.
