Garrett Morgan High School - Cleveland, Ohio

Garrett Morgan High School (GMHS) is an academic building designed in an urban context, with a curriculum that focuses both on the humanities and technology. Situated on a 5 acre site, this 133,000 sqft building carried a budget of $35 million and is located along the Cleveland Memorial Shoreway, adjacent to Lake Erie, near downtown Cleveland. Occupying a highly sought after site, GMHS boasts incredible views of downtown Cleveland, in addition to its flexible technologically advanced classroom spaces.

The project, located in the Gordan Square Landmark District, was a collaboration between many stakeholders including the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, Ward 15's Councilman Matt Zone, the Cleveland Landmarks and Planning Commission, the Detroit Shoreway Community Development Organization and residents of the local community. Throughout the design process, these stakeholders were regularly consulted in a variety of engagement events to identify design goals and encourage collaboration.

This short film takes you on a journey through the environmental context, design process and the finished architecture of this new Cleveland School.

A huge thanks to CMSD and all the stakeholders who helped make this project successful. It couldn't have been realized without the support of the community, the educators and visionaries in the district who are committed to bringing the best educational spaces to Cleveland and Northeast Ohio.
