Sundt is about a month away from completing Coyote Center, a new $21 million student services and athletics facility at Chandler-Gilbert Community College’s Pecos Campus in Chandler, Arizona. The community college construction project has an innovative design that includes raised access flooring and movable partitions to allow the college to easily adjust the 75,000-square-foot space to take advantage of new technology. The project team is currently engaged in testing and commissioning the building’s systems while furniture, bleachers, telecommunications and AV equipment are installed.
“It’s going to be tight but we have good momentum and we should no doubt finish on time,” says Sundt Project Manager Chris Tinney.
The two-story building’s features include a “one-stop” student services area, a 2,500-seat arena surrounding a 10,000-foot gymnasium, fitness center, athletic offices and locker rooms, classrooms and testing facilities, administration offices and conference rooms. Coyote Center also has athletic treatment areas and an expansive performance area, featuring a four-lane, 60-meter sprint track and other turf areas for outdoor training.
