Mission Viejo city hall, library expansion

Construction of a new city hall and a library expansion for the city of Mission Viejo has been completed. San Diego-based Douglas E. Barnhart Inc. was the design and construction manager. The designer was LPA Architects.

The 52,303-squaree-foot city hall features administrative space, a council chamber and an emergency operations center/community room. The 14,441-square-foot library expansion brings the facility to 29,940 square feet. The new area provides space for the library collection, study room, a television studio and a traffic control room. The project began in March 2001. Barnhart was the general contractor on the original library.

For Barnhart, Brian Cahill was the construction manager, Richard Bruce the project manager, Bill Downing and Craig Smith the superintendents and Barbara Welch the engineer. James. T. Wirick, Rick D'Amato, Lawrence Chiu, Craig Whitridge and Michael Henning represented LPA.
