Description: The team of Powell Design Group, Inc. (PDG) and Design / Build partner WELBRO Building Corporation was selected from a field of 19 candidates by the University of Central Florida to design and construct the New Greek Housing and Residence Life Center. The project consists of three distinct buildings.  A 5,000 SF Greek Life Center anchors the southern end of Greek Drive with meeting rooms, as well as Greek Housing/Council offices, and is budgeted at $1,000,000.  Two sorority houses, each approximately 13,000 SF and two stories in height will occupy the property to the north of the center.  Both houses will sleep forty (40) students and have full kitchen/dining facilities for group meals; social spaces including lounges, living rooms, libraries, study areas, and a House Director’s apartment.  The two sorority buildings are budgeted at $5,658,284.

Utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Design/Build Project Delivery Methods the PDG/WELBRO team applies its talents and experience to acheive LEED Silver Certification for the group of buildings.
