Project Scope
Description
In 2020, Albion was chosen as the Program Manager for the new Atlanta Humane Society Headquarters. Albion quickly completed the remediation of the new brownfield site and was honored with the first-place 2021 AGC Build Georgia Award for their efforts in this remediation. Following these site remediation efforts, Albion was selected as the Design-Builder for the new 40,000 SF headquarters facility for the Atlanta Humane Society. Designed to support the organization’s century-long mission in Atlanta, the Arthur M. Blank Family Animal Center offers a state-of-the-art environment that meets both the operational and care-focused needs of AHS.
The facility includes world-class medical treatment areas, dedicated spaces for animals requiring behavioral support, indoor and outdoor adoption areas, and unique features such as walking trails, splash pads for dogs, and screened-in “catios” for cats. In addition to its animal-focused spaces, the project also delivers thoughtfully designed office space on the second floor, providing AHS staff and volunteers with an efficient, comfortable working environment that supports collaboration and long-term organizational growth.
This landmark facility not only enhances AHS’s capacity to serve the community but also showcases Albion’s ability to deliver highly functional, purpose-driven public service facilities through integrated design-build delivery.
