The Langley School Crossroads Building in McLean, VA

Size: 33,570 sf
Owner: The Langley School
Owner’s Rep: Capital Projects Management Firm
Architect: CGS Architects

This unique project involved demolishing an existing library on campus before constructing The Crossroads Building, a 33,570 sf facility that houses the primary school, fifth grade, library and media center, and a large multi-purpose space. The building consists of one level below grade and two levels above grade. Key components of the project included support of excavation, structural steel, and miscellaneous finishes.

Designed for versatility, primary school classrooms feature open footprints that allow teachers to configure the space for various learning activities. Breakout rooms are attached to kindergarten classrooms, which can be used as meeting spaces for math and reading specialists. Other innovative features include lockers with built-in charging ports for Chromebooks and a technology maker space where STEAM and technology classes are taught.
