As part of a Design/Build project in collaboration with Wackenhut Corrections Facility, WA provided architecture and engineering design services for one of the nation‘s first new comprehensive public mental health facilities in many years, the South Florida State Hospital campus in the City of Pembroke Pines, across from the North Perry Airport. The project was specifically designed to support the role of the recovery process.

The 250,000 SF complex is located on a campus like setting and is comprised of 35 buildings including a town hall. At the time of completion, the facility was licensed to treat 350 patients. This project was the first joint venture in the State of Florida between private industry and the federal government. There are 10 duplex apartments to provide transitional living for those who need to learn self-help skills before living in the community.
