All Saints School Roger's Media Center - Tyler, Texas

The All Saints School, a K-through-12 private institution, in 1999 welcomed the completion of the Roger's Media Center, a multi-media learning center featuring conventional library, computer server services, computer class rooms and administrative offices.  The two story edifice is a brick veneered, steel frame structure with standing seam metal roof system with ample skylighting and clerestory lobby areas.  The man for whom the building is named, Robert Rogers, was an innovator in the cable television industry starting his first cable television business in the 1950's. Without his financial and community support, the construction of this building would not have been possible. Until his death three years ago, Mr. Rogers was CEO of TCA Cable with cable markets all over the south.  The building features state-of-the-art computer systems with cable and satellite technologies.  Computer laboratory space enables students to learn, not only computer basics,  but advanced concepts in motion picture editing and graphics not generally available to students of this age.  Architect for the project was Mike Butler, AIA of Fitzpatrick-Butler, Architects, Tyler, Texas.  Brannon Corporation furnished site civil engineer, air conditioning/heating, electrical systems design, plumbing design, lighting design, structural concrete and steel design.  The project was built by C-Construction Company, also of Tyler, Texas under a 'construction manager at risk' format. Total cost of the project was just under $2.5 million.
