John Serbu Youth Campus

(Formerly Lane County Juvenile Justice Center)

 

The main facility of the John Serbu Youth Campus includes two courtrooms, an administrative office area, housing for 96 and support services such as a kitchen and laundry. The office and court portion of the facility is a two-story structure constructed with a composite structural steel system. The housing units and support areas have concrete masonry structural walls and a steel framed roof.

Architectural features of the building include a barrel-vaulted roof over the courts and masonry veneer throughout.

The Substance Abuse Treatment and Shelter Care Facility portion of the project consists of two buildings that are residential in nature and have relatively low security. The floors are slab on grade, the walls stud framed, and the roof is a system of glue-laminated beams and wood I-joists. Concrete masonry is used for walls in the sleeping areas. The exterior walls have a masonry veneer.
