notre dame high school
Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, California
Chattel consulted on the Master Plan for the Notre Dame High School campus located in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood. Collaborating with Corsini Stark Architects, Chattel helped ensure that the location and design of new campus buildings were compatible yet differentiated from the Mission Revival style architecture present on campus.
Notre Dame High School’s first building dates to 1947 and the campus was identified in SurveyLA as individually eligible as a City Historic-Cultural Monument. Chattel also identified the campus eligible as a potential National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historical Resources historic district. Based on this eligibility, Chattel participated in design collaboration to ensure infill construction on campus was in conformance with the Secretary’s Standards and would thus not cause material impairment pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The first of the new buildings and structures proposed for the campus is a parking garage under construction in 2020.
