A LITTLE STORY

Elevatus Architecture is the 21st century rebranding of a Fort Wayne firm, SchenkelShultz. Our focus and specialization continue to include …

Education Justice Government Community

Within these market sectors, we continue to win recognition not only for the quality of our design work but also – and this is most important to us – for the relationships we form with our clients. We treat them as partners. That means we go out of our way to ensure that each relationship is collaborative, congenial, authentic – and productive.

Our reach is boundless. But our local and regional clients know they have our total commitment. After all, they’ve been primarily responsible for our continued presence and our growth in Indiana.

All of our clients look upon Elevatus as a problem-solver. We don’t design for design’s sake. Rather, we seek to deliver designs that harmoniously balance form and function; designs that promote livability, provide security, and meet not only our clients’ present-day objectives but future objectives as well.

When the Barber County Jail was shut down after it failed to meet federal and state correctional requirements, inmates had to be transported to neighboring counties at a high cost. The situation left Barber County with a pressing need for a revamped and compliant facility.

Elevatus was hired to develop a comprehensive needs assessment of the county’s detention requirements and operational requirements of its sheriff’s department.

The team conceptualized a new, highly functional jail to include housing, recreation, intake, laundry, commissary, jail and sheriff’s administration, and other support functions. The blueprint for these spaces was meticulously outlined in the Program of Spaces, ensuring every aspect necessary for the proper functioning of a jail was accounted for.

The team also considered Barber County’s logistical and costly challenge of transporting inmates to neighboring jurisdictions. Discussions were initiated with the USDA to explore potential funding avenues, while dialogue with the Federal Marshal’s office sought to investigate the feasibility of housing federal inmates.

In the end, the needs assessment laid out three optional sizes for the proposed solution. Elevatus offered cost estimates provided by a regional construction firm currently constructing the Lawrence County, Missouri County Jail.

The study will allow Barber County to weigh variables and make an informed decision to ensure a safer, more sustainable future.

The study process included conversations with local stakeholders including a county Judge and the County Attorney, who each shed light on the tangible impact of operating without a local jail.

The four-county Lake Region needed help. Its existing regional detention facility had fallen short of state and federal standards, and was plagued by overcrowding and poor conditions.

Elevatus was hired to conduct a study to address the region’s pressing need for a new jail facility in response to the inadequacies of the current shared regional setup.

The study determined the necessity for a 200-bed facility, modeled after an Indiana jail design completed by Elevatus, featuring a two-tiered layout with a centralized raised control room for efficient supervision.

Unique to this plan is the integration of dedicated administration spaces for multiple regional departments, alongside shared facilities like training rooms and conference areas.

With the site selection underway, the county is poised to tackle funding and cost estimation, guided by evidence demonstrating the inefficacy of expanding or renovating the existing jail.

The study lays the groundwork for a transformative facility that meets contemporary standards and addresses the specific needs of the region, signaling a significant step forward in regional detention infrastructure.

The second level will house four courtrooms and court services, including holding cells to ensure inmate security during hearings, with separate access for judges, court staff, and inmates. Elevators will be located between courtrooms to transport inmates from the jail.

Walsh County engaged Elevatus to assess the necessity for a new detention facility. The study encompassed comprehensive programming assessments, conceptual layouts, site planning, and rendering development.

Our vision culminated in a modern, efficient, and secure jail to meet to the county’s needs.

A new 46-bed facility was proposed, situated between the historic courthouse and the Emergency Services Center. It includes a 7-classification housing area, emphasizing efficiency and security, with a centralized, elevated control room for optimal supervision.

The design incorporates an efficient intake area and vehicle sallyport, along with kitchen and laundry facilities. A work release unit, with dormitories for both genders, promotes rehabilitation and societal reintegration.

Sensitivity to the limestone-clad courthouse’s historic status dictated a meticulous approach.

A glass lobby connects the courthouse to the jail, offering glimpses of its facade. The jail’s brick exterior will blend with limestone for cohesion. An elevator ensures the safe transit of inmates to the courthouse’s 2nd-floor courtrooms.

The project includes a centralized sheriff’s administration area, and a multipurpose room for staff and external groups, with a separate entrance for accessibility.

Central to the project is the installation of a new boiler chiller system that will service the courthouse, the new jail, and the emergency operations center.

The county is poised to explore financing options, mindful of fiscal responsibility and community needs. This plan seamlessly meets modern correctional demands while harmonizing with historic surroundings.

Elevatus Architecture completed a comprehensive study of the Allen County Justice System for the Allen County Commissioners. The county desired to be prepared to meet the space and growth needs of the justice system in the years ahead.

The first item was a justice needs study process summary – while this was focused on the jail, it was intended as a system wide explanation of the data necessary for a full examination. This is a clear explanation of our thoughts and next steps as well as the required information needed to complete the study of the Allen County Justice system.

The Goal:

Based on the information and results of the Part I study, we gathered information from the relevant departments/facilities to assist in identifying existing building capacities, locations, and relationships, and coordinate options for physical relocation of departments to increase efficiency, efficacy, or other goals

identified by the county commissioners.

Steps for each department for this portion of the study included the following:

1. Request/Receive any floor plans or building information per department

2. Department space and location survey (Prep for data needed) Staff

Qty current, Future (20 year outlook/ trend) Clients” served (quantity, frequency, etc) Referral from justice system Public/visitor

In summary, the study includes the following:

• Analysis of existing conditions

• How departments interact

• Proximity between departments

• Identification of key relationships

• Review of the capacity of each department, and anticipated future growth needs, both staff and space

ALLEN COUNTY JUSTICE SYSTEM STUDY

The study includes recommendations for the colocation of all justice related departments within a single building proximate to the existing historic courthouse. It also discusses options for relocating the jail to a remote campus and all future needs; the campus will be master-planned to accommodate the potential future co-location of all components of the justice system on the campus.

Elevatus was hired by Lawrence County to conduct a comprehensive study of its criminal justice system to determine whether it needed a new detention facility. Beginning with a needs assessment, our team conducted interviews with various teams within the county’s justice system to ultimately provide valuable insight and make a recommendation regarding the necessity and design of a new jail facility tailored to the county’s requirements. In the end, with a full understanding of its current and future demand, Lawrence County chose to move forward with a new facility.

The Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office and Detention Center are located on a mountain plateau in historic Deadwood, South Dakota. The unique processes involved in the intake/ release areas of the jail demanded out-ofthe-box thinking for a layout that met the complex requirements and adjacencies. Those requirements include spaces such as incustody and out-of-custody courts, male and female transitional housing observable from

intake, and high-frequency intake and release activity.

The 120-bed facility includes a kitchen, laundry, a six-station 911/dispatch unit, an emergency management department, and sheriff’s administration, all properly laid out for future expansion.

The 68,000 square foot layout also includes a 24/7 program, a heavily used program that monitors misdemeanor offenders outfitted with ankle bracelets that appear regularly at the jail.

The town’s National Historic Register designation will facilitate a look to the building that complements the old west feel for the downtown.

After performing four studies over a 3-year period for the Adams County Commissioners that looked at all aspects of their criminal justice system, Elevatus was hired in 2014 to design a new jail for the county. The 212bed facility will be located on a rural site just southwest of downtown Decatur, with excellent access to Highway 27.

The project consists of all the functions required for jail operations, including Sheriff’s administration, video visitation, intake, food service and laundry, medical and housing. The two tier housing area is subdivided into 8 units to give maximum flexibility for classification, and includes two dormitories, one unit of four man cells, and five units of two man cells. The eight dayrooms and two recreation spaces encompass a central raised control room with excellent sight of all spaces. Rear chases are provided for ease of maintenance and optimum security. State-of-the art security electronics will greatly assist the officers in day-to-day operations.

Lines of sight were strongly considered during the design process, resulting in a highly effective and secure layout. The plan is laid out for ease of expansion for all departments.

The facility also houses a Work Release Program operated by the Sheriff, consisting of a 16 bed male unit and an 8 bed female unit. Work Release functions are separate from the secure jail side. The administration area includes the County dispatch, emergency management, and an emergency operations center.

USP Leavenworth is a medium-security federal prison located in Leavenworth, Kansas. The facility, activated in 1897, is the oldest prison under the authority of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. With an average daily population of more than 1,600 inmates, USP Leavenworth is comprised of 12 buildings across 1,583 acres, with 22 acres inside the secure perimeter.

At well over 100 years old with aged electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, the Federal Bureau of Prisons made the decision to build a new federal prison in Leavenworth. The team of Clark Construction and Elevatus Architecture, which together handled the high-security USP Terre Haute facility, was contracted to design and construct the new Leavenworth penitentiary.

The Federal Bureau of Prisons provided technical design guidelines that guided the design of the new Leavenworth campus. Plans call for as many as 16 new buildings, with roughly 1,500 beds. The new design will allow for a variety of programming in

modern, normalized environments, including treatment, education, job training, and family connection.

While much of the architectural work was satisfying technical design guidelines, the project did allow for some creative liberties. The existing historic prison is famous for its grandeur, with its stately albeit formidable front stone façade and iconic dome, and Elevatus architects set out to pay homage to the imposing main edifice in the new design, including tall windows across the front in the classic federal architecture. The team will also work to repurpose or display certain historic prison artifacts and materials.

The new USP Leavenworth is expected to be completed in Spring 2026.

Elevatus Architecture (formerly SchenkelShultz) was hired by KBR to develop the design which was based on a similar plan used at the Miami Correctional Facility in Indiana. Subsequent to Camp 5, KBR, hired the design team at Elevatus to design the Secure Communications Facility on the base. This project was also completed successfully and within the time frame and budget established by the client. In 2005, the same team was hired to design an addition to the Fleet Hospital complex within Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The Annex is a maximum security facility for detainees with special psychiatric needs. The facility consists of 12 pre-manufactured steel patient rooms, two padded holding rooms, two restraint rooms, and various support functions within a pre-engineered metal building.

The campus first opened in 1951 as a state-run mental health facility, but was renovated and expanded in 1979 to serve as a state prison. Today, the facility is outdated and dilapidated, and beyond salvageable.

The Elevatus team was selected to create a master plan and redesign the site’s usage as a modern prison to satisfy housing for more than 3,000 inmates.

The replacement prison will be more than 1 million square feet of maximum, medium and minimum-security housing and hold 4,000 beds, with space for administrative functions, program services, recreation, industries, and facility management, along with a dedicated medical and mental health services unit. It will be the first new prison built in Indiana in more than 20 years.

With a study completed in 2013, the Dekalb County Commissioners pushed ahead with this new Community Correction Center in the middle of 2017. Currently in the design development stage, this 18,500+ sf facility will serve the Community Corrections needs of the county aimed at helping offenders to get back into a more productive society.

Working with the County and the Community Corrections Department, the program for this facility includes 52 work release beds, over 2,000 sf of classroom and program space, a full-service kitchen, and more than 4,800 sf of administration space.

Understanding the value and culture that a community corrections program like DeKalb County promotes allowed Elevatus Architecture to help develop a program and design that would satisfy their needs. This facility will provide the Community Corrections department the appropriate space and future growth to continue the

mission of increasing public safety, reducing recidivism and encouraging individuals to improve their lives.
