Germantown Academy Master Plan

Type
Campus Master Plan
Scale
118 acres
Location
Ft. Washington, PA

The Master Plan for Germantown Academy upgraded and reorganized the 118-acre campus to create innovative programming opportunities. The plan focused on principles of sustainable design integration and reconnected the core campus to the natural environment — Wissahickon Creek and the adjacent wetlands and woodlands.

Following the adoption of the WRT campus master plan, a team of WRT architects and landscape architects designed and oversaw construction of the master plan’s first phase of implementation: a new Academic Building for Grades 6-12, renovation of an existing administration building, the reconfiguration of all middle and upper school outdoor athletic facilities, and initial wetland restoration on the Wissahickon Creek’s north bank.
