GALLERY

DETAILS

The Papago Park Military Reservation for the Arizona Department of Emergency and Military Affairs, dates back to 1930 and serves as the Arizona Joint Force Headquarters for the Army and Air National Guard.

The Arizona National Guard’s training facility, the Readiness Center is a single-story building, which was completed one month ahead of schedule and delivered using the design-build approach. It has the capacity to house 192 soldiers for training tasks and includes: a top-secret tactical operations suite, a combat simulator, classrooms, an administration area, a kitchen, a weapons vault, training rooms, and lockers and showers.

Designed to achieve LEED Silver certification, however due to the addition of solar photovoltaic and solar hot water systems, along with careful planning, the facility obtained LEED Gold. The photovoltaic system generates about 85% of the electrical power needed for the facility.
