Brantview Dormitory Historic Renovation

St. Johnsbury Academy, VT

National Register of Historic Places

This historic residence was completed in 1884 for the locally prominent Fairbanks family.  The property was gifted in the 1930’s to the Academy and has served as a dormitory since.  Black River Design assisted with a multi-million dollar renovation, including critical updates such as a new elevator stair tower and lobby, new windows, interior restoration, structural improvements, new slate roof, insulation, and new MEP systems including a full sprinkler system.  These updates will preserve and bring the building into modern use for generations of students to come.
