MLK building

Details

Designed by Vernon De Mars and completed in 1961, the Martin Luther King Jr. Building stands both as a reminder of Dr. King’s courageous advocacy and as an inspiration for leadership within our community. Renovated in 2015 the building now blends the best of mid-century modernism with all the contemporary amenities necessary such as environmentally sustainable features, complete ADA accessibility, and LEED Gold certification.
