Boys and Girls Club turned elementary school creates the first new elementary school for Gig Harbor in 34 years

AHBL provided the land use planning, civil engineering, and land surveying required for the due diligence study of an existing Boys and Girls Club facility to determine the feasibility of using the facility for an elementary school. Based on the findings the Peninsula School District moved forward with the purchase. Required tenant improvements added 39,000SF to the building and exterior space, and the existing facility is now Pioneer Elementary School, the first new elementary school added to the district in 34 years. 


The AHBL project team’s evaluations included boundary confirmation, land use and building zoning and permitting requirements, design and development regulations, critical areas, and utilities identification.
