History
North Dallas High School was built in 1920 in the Romanesque Revival style that was very popular for educational buildings constructed during this period. By 1922, Dallas had four high
time, the school was so far outside of the city that it was almost considered to be “in the woods.” Situated on a cornfjeld, 794 students enrolled for the fjrst year, most of them transfers from Dallas High School (Crozier Tech). North Dallas High School graudated many notable people including Tex Avery, creator
Dallas-based El Fenix Restaurants. There have been several renovations to North Dallas High School since 1920 — an addition for a boys gymnasium and a physical education facility on the backside of the original building was completed in 1957; in 1971 the entire building was air-conditioned. Some renovation work was completed in the building 1977. An addition to the north-east side (McKinney Avenue side) was completed in 1985 as well as additional parking added on the Cole Avenue side. This addition was designed by Frank L. Meier, a Dallas architect and graduate of the class of ‘55, and it matches the red brick used in the original
project and he remains in possession of lttner’s original 1920 specifjcations.

Past Additions and Renovations
Two signifjcant additions were completed in the 1950’s and 1980’s that extended the footprint of the North Dallas High School north towards Cole Park. In addition, various interior renovations were completed to facilitate the every changing needs of students. Throughout each phase of these improvements to the facility, the original exterior construction from 1920 has remained largely unchanged with the except of non-historic metal windows. Intent of Current Planned Renovations The current scope of work approved by Dallas ISD as part of their 2015 Bond Program will work to clean the exterior facade, replace sealant joints as part of ongoing maintenance to the facade, replace the fjnal remaining original wood and/or steel windows with new metal windows (if required for exterior envelope integrity), and renovate/reconfjgure portions of the building’s interior to meet current District Standards and programming needs.

EXISTING BUILDING (SUBMITTED UNDER SEPARATE CA APPLICATION)
When confjguring the new addition we looked to the existing historic architecture to provide planning, context, and design inspiration for the new addition. The strong sense of symmetry engendered by the original layout of the school’s corridors informed the overal building width and position. Where possible we carried these lines through the site to allow the addition to continue to inform the campus growth.

New Addition
New Because of the Old
The existing 1920’s high school was designed in the Romanesque Revival style, characteristics of which include detailed arches and contrasting masonry. Although the North Dallas High School’s facade is rather symmetrical, this style’s strong emphasis
and west elevations. The strong masonry contrast and the playful asymmetry of the existing building together with the programmatic requirements for a storm shelter has informed the design direction of the new addition: the building seeks to highlight by contrast the existing structure while subtly referring back to the original building’s unique design features. To meet the requirements of ICC 500 Storm Shelters, the new addition requires a structurally signifjcant envelope with minimal openings. To meet the budgetary limitations of the project, precast architectural concrete panels serve as the building structure, exterior and interior facades, and storm shelter envelope as a single comprehensive solution. The precast architectural panels give the overall massing depth and dynamism similar to the variation naturally found in brick, while the joint patterns reference the width and asymmetry of the original projecting bays. The shifting curtain wall volume

Maintaining Horizontal Continuity
The cast stone cornice lines provide strong continuouis datum lines around the existing building elevations. These datums have been referenced in the major additions to the school and have infmuenced the proposed addition material joint placement as
the existing building’s prominent elevations. The height of the addition has been set by the programmatic requirments of the gymnasium space which means that it will differ in height from the remainder of the building so we have proposed variations in he brick color along the datum line established by the existing windows to establish a relationship between the new and old portions of the building. 23

Continuity with the Past
The new Stack Bond Brick Coursing is a deliberate departure from the existing Flemish Bond as a way of differentiating the addition while respecting the historical features of the existing 1922
renderings on the following pages, this will allow the building to pay homage to the past without mimicking it, and while still keeping an eye toward the future.

Street Section
Visibility of new mechanical equipment on the existing building is of primary concern from the athletic fjelds to the north and the R.O.W. approaches from the north due to the gentle topographic slope from the north to the south. McKinney Ave and Cole Ave are the two one-way streets which bound the site to the east and west of the site; both are approxamity 38 feet wide with street parking on either side. Haskell Ave, which bounds the site to the south is signifjcntly lower in elevation than the fjeld or approach to the school from the north and is therefore visibility of rooftop mechanical equipment is of lesser concern. Where needed, mechanical screening will be provided.
