Project Description
Stokesdale is a community anticipating exponential growth. To prepare for the future, therefore, the town tapped Stewart-Cooper-Newell to help them design and build a new Town Hall. (The building is the second phase of a larger project. The first phase included the design and construction of a park, which was funded through a PARTF grant.)
The procession to the new Town Hall begins at the street. A roundabout circles the monument sign and a specimen evergreen tree, used for decoration at Christmas. With parking on each side, the roundabout allows for vehicle off-loading at a plaza created by decorative brick pavers.
The Plaza leads visitors past the neoclassical columns and through the main entry into a double-height lobby. From there, visitors can access a small conference room, public restrooms, and the community room with seating for 100 guests and 7 officials.
Controlled access is also available to the offices and private conference rooms, administrative facilities and a high density filing system.
