Canton, Ohio
Multi-purpose office space for an increased workload
The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA) outgrew their existing office spaces at its main bus facility in Canton, OH, and needed to build a new 14,000 SF addition off of the north side of its existing bus garage. The building is comprised of four main volumes, a glass box signifying the main entrance, a translucent volume which creates the lobby, a masonry façade (the executive area) and a metal panel clad form which makes up the office space.
The new addition houses over 20 private offices, conference rooms, huddle rooms, along with a new kitchen and employee break area. All of these functions center around a new 2,000 SF multi-purpose room that is able to house large events. This room can be divided into 3 smaller rooms by means of operable walls. The new addition is clad in metal panels, a translucent wall system and a brick façade. This new facility began construction in 2022 and was completed by early 2024.
