$55-Million Facility Completed at East L.A. College
East Los Angeles College (ELAC) has completed work on a $55-million expansion of its campus in Monterey Park. The Arts and Humanities Building, designed by the architecture and engineering firm HGA, consists of a five-story structure featuring classrooms, offices, and language learning labs. It is divided into two separate wings by an open-air courtyard which also serves as a main entrance and vertical circulation point. Located near the heart of the ELAC campus, the building incorporates a exterior plaza at the front of the building which weaves into a central quad.
