Project description:
KZF Design was the lead architect and engineer, in association with P.J. Dick as part of a Design/Build team, for a new Secure Women’s Facility on a 966-acre site in Hazelton, WV. The Secure Women’s Facility is a first generation federal facility prototype developed specifically for women. The facility is similar to other federal correctional institutions, with individual housing buildings centered on an open courtyard in a campus-like plan, with support spaces wrapping around the courtyard on the remaining three sides. The Secure Women’s Facility will have a rated capacity of 512 inmates who will be housed in one of two housing buildings, each of which contains 128 cells. An additional 16 cells are provided in the Special Housing Unit. The total gross building area is over 200,000 SF.
KZF Design also prepared the Master Plan for the Hazelton site, which was designed to accommodate three facilities including:
A USP (United States Penitentiary) (A KZF Design)
A FCI-SWF (Federal Correctional Institution - Secure Women’s Facility)
A FCIL (Federal Correction Institution - Low) (Future)
Construction of the first phase of the Master Plan included the USP and support facilities consisting of a FPC (Federal Prison Camp) and the Central Shared Facilities and Central Utility Plant. KZF Design was the architect-engineer for these facilities as well. The USP Facility is a maximum-security institution consisting of 650,000 SF of one and two story buildings arranged around central courtyard and connected by a secure corridor. The USP contains 768 General Housing Cells and an additional 120 Special Housing Cells.
