DOWNTOWN CAMPUS BUILDING FACTS Introduction The Lane Community College Downtown Campus is a landmark project for education, business and the community. The innovative design and features of the campus will allow Lane to increase training and services, meet sustainability goals, and contribute to the regional economy. The campus includes two connected buildings located on a half-block site in downtown Eugene, Oregon—an Academic Building providing instructional and service programs, and a Student Housing building offering apartments. Lane is the community's college, providing comprehensive, accessible, quality, learning-centered educational opportunities to promote student success. Programs include transfer credit, career and technical training, community education, business training, and basic education. Nearly 38,000 students a year enroll at Lane. History Actual planning work for the downtown campus project began with a feasibility study that started in December 2009 and ended in March 2010. The college approved the result of the study and selected an architectural team to start designing the project in August 2010. Shortly thereafter a project management firm and construction manager/general contractor were hired to complete the consultant team. Various kinds of due diligence work began on the site in January 2011 and initial construction activities began in March 2011. The Downtown Campus was designed and built in a very short time period employing the construction manager, general contractor (CM/GC) method of project delivery. Openings Titan Court, the student housing building, opened and began leasing in September 2012, just 17 months after the start of construction. The Academic building is scheduled to be completed in December 2012, just 21 months after the start of construction. Classes will begin January 7, 2013. Funding The estimated total project cost is $53.4 million.

Direct construction cost: $14,838,000. Indirect cost include design fees, permits, etc. Green/Sustainable Features  Solar-thermal array above main entrance of the academic building. This array consists of a series of water pipes enclosed in vacuum tubes exposed to ultra-violet rays from the sun. These rays heat the water which is then piped to the housing building for non-potable use as hot water.  High-performance building envelope. The design and insulation in the exterior walls and building roof provide a superior barrier to changes of outside temperature. This means that less heat is needed inside the building to resist cold winter temperatures and heating by high summer temperatures can be significantly reduced.  Triple glazed windows with solar resistant coating. The results of this glazing system are superior insulation plus reflecting much of the sun's direct rays.  Natural ventilation. Every room with an outside wall has a window that is operable. This includes the living/cooking/dining rooms and the bedrooms of every apartment.  Insulated window shades. These obviously provide more insulation than typical shades.  The overall effect of the above individual measures results in housing building not needing mechanical air conditioning.  A green roof over the meeting rooms between the academic and housing buildings adds beauty and provides thermal insulation and slows down the drainage of rainwater so that gutters and roof drains are not overburdened during downpours. This also eliminates the heat-island effect and glare caused by other types of roofing.

Academic Building Facts Address: 101 West 10th Avenue, Eugene, OR 97401 Building Facts  Total enclosed area is 91,818 square feet  Building is four stories high plus a rooftop enclosure for energy management students to view HVAC and solar features  Construction is reinforced, post-tensioned concrete and steel frame  Meets all current building and handicapped access codes including fire-sprinklers and earthquake resistant structure  Total cost is $33,150,000. Direct construction cost is $24,312,000. Green/Sustainable Features  The Academic building is designed and built to achieve the Platinum level of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green building rating system. Platinum is the highest level in the system. Building features include: o Geo-thermal wells. This is a ground source heating system. Pipe loops conduct water into and out of 50 wells under the buildings. Each well is 350 feet deep. The water is warmed by the wells and then is piped to heat exchangers to heat the building. o Passive ventilation. The building is designed to take advantage of natural airflow and the natural property of concrete mass to warm up or cool down. Outside air enters and leaves the building through windows, roof-top openings and air shafts. In the process the concrete floor masses become cooler and discharge cool temperature to the surrounding air. o Rainwater Harvesting. Two 10,000 gallon holding tanks (cisterns) are buried under the west courtyard. The rain that falls onto the roof is piped into the cisterns by gravity. The stored water is then pumped through other pipes to irrigate landscaped areas and used to flush toilets. o Automated building control system. Low voltage electronic valves, pumps and sensors control the air temperature, ventilation and lighting in rooms. The system allows the temperature, ventilation and lights in each room to be controlled by preset programs. o Building that teaches. One of the goals this building is designed to address is to instruct people about its sustainable and energy efficient features. This instruction is carried out by five displays: Emphasizing the solar-thermal array at the main entrance, a monitor screen in the main entry lobby that shows the current and long term use of energy and water in the building, a view of the Geo-well manifold under the floor, an above grade gauge that shows the level of rainwater in the cisterns and a green, vegetated, roof over the Center for Meeting and Learning. Additional Features  Wireless connection to the internet is available throughout the entire building.  For added security exterior building doors and selected interior doors are equipped with card access hardware.  An arrangement with the city allows college employees and students to park in one of the nearby city owned and operated parking garages at low rates.  There are 47 interior bicycle parking stalls in addition to 74 exterior stalls for the campus and 56 interior bicycle parking stalls for the Student Housing Building  A 15 minute drop-off/pick-up parking stall is located on 10th Avenue in front of the main entrance to the building.  The Titan Store is a small convenience store open to students, staff and the general public. The store offers a variety of hot and cold, healthy snacks, school supplies and wearing apparel.  There is an ATM in the building.  The building surrounds an outside landscaped courtyard that can be enjoyed by anyone.
