The existing Automotive Technology Complex was part of Phase 2 of original campus construction in 1978. The building was designed and used for vocational and industrial labs. The expansion and remodel removed the large shower and locker facilities, converted older labs into up-to-date lecture rooms and added an automotive electronics testing lab, a heavy equipment lab and a computer lab with state-of-the-art automotive diagnostic equipment. The modernization project included the following: a complete remodel of existing restroom facilities; installation of new HVAC equipment - preexisting class-labs were not air-conditioned; and an upgrade of facilities per the 3DI Facilities Assessment Report. 1
