FCC's master plan marks the first time that minimum, medium, high security and administrative maximum security correctional institutions have been located on one site. The plan balances environmental and operational concerns by incorporating issues as security, public image, climatic conditions, utility development, efficient operations, soil conditions and visual observation of high security facilities into a cost-effective design. These elements were carefully addressed to minimize the effects of the introduction of a major correctional complex into a sparsely populated and environmentally delicate area. This project was designed in joint venture with LKA Partners of Colorado Springs. * The Daiy Journal - One of the Top Colorado projects of the 20th century http://www.dlrgroupjustice.com/justice/portfolio/prisons/ams_florence.htm Administrative Maximum Security Florence, Colorado This is the first specifically designed Administrative Maximum Security facility ever to be built in the United States by the Federal Bureau of Prisons. A 562-bed facility located on 37 acres, it is divided into six varying security levels. Based upon each inmate's security classification, support services, such as visitation, administration, health services, and educational program areas, as well as a chapel, gymnasium, and commissary are available. The design team was challenged to meet the extensive program and highest security parameters set by the Federal Bureau of Prisons and yet present an image appropriate and conducive to the local architecture. The exterior materials are integrated in a manner which balances the scale with the massing, establishing a form which minimizes the visual impact of this 429,000-SF facility.
