David Crockett High School Athletics Upgrades

Regarding the Project masterplan, the project aimed to utilize the existing central axis and infrastructure of the athletic complex as a promenade to connect all program elements, facilitate circulation, and efficiently locate utility services. The existing field house was remodeled to house ticket booth and public restrooms. Directly aligned with the existing building between the entry and the new stadium, new structures were located to house a football and soccer fieldhouse, as well as a viewing/ filming terrace above.

The implementation of Phase I of the Project focused on the creation of the pedestrian axis that connects the entry point to the football stadium as well as baseball and softball fields, thereby eliminating redundant support functions by making concessions and restrooms in a single location more convenient to all fields. The new home grandstand, press box, and filming platform were constructed in place of the existing 50 year-old structure, accommodating approximately 2,300 spectators. Three buildings located beneath the bleacher structure consolidate storage, concession, and toilet facilities. The existing football field lights were also relocated, out of the spectators’ field of view.
