Barnhart to manage construction of elementary school for Alvord Unified School District

Barnhart, Inc. was awarded a contract to manage construction of a new $10 million elementary school for the Alvord Unified School District.

Located in the Lake Hills area of Riverside, CA, the new school will begin construction in late 2003 for an early 2005 completion. Barnhart will assist the district with observation and monitoring of site preparation by the developer, and will also be involved in the design phase of the project from concept to construction documents. Barnhart will bid and manage construction of the school, overseeing multiple trade contractors. NTD Architects were contracted to design the project. NTD and Barnhart are currently working together to complete the $57 million Westview High school project in Poway, and they successfully completed Red Hill Elementary School, located in Santa Ana.

The new facility will be the district's 13th elementary school, joining Alvord's nineteen other elementary, middle, and high schools and two service centers. Alvord Unified School District has been serving the Riverside area since 1896, and is named after the former mayor of San Francisco, William Alvord, who was a pioneering land investor in the Riverside area.
