Olympic Center Modernization

The Olympic Center is a sports complex in Lake Placid, New York that acted as the Olympic Park for both the 1932 and the 1980 Winter Olympics. The venues were also the site of the 2023 Winter World University Games.

Several structures owned by the Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) required modernization.

The project involved coordination with multiple subconsultants, utilities companies, and other stakeholders.

As a subconsultant to Cannon Design, Encorus Group coordinated with site personnel and utility companies and created construction plans, plan details, and component lists.

The project as a whole included the improvement of IT and broadcast media infrastructure, a two-story building addition to house storage space, a loading dock, meeting rooms, refurbishment of restrooms, seating, mechanical systems, building envelope, and locker rooms. It also included the design of a new below-grade tunnel system to connect buildings, improved circulation and wayfinding, addition of an access control system, the addition of intrusion detection systems, and the extension of existing multimedia systems to the renovated portions of the facility.
