In 2005, The Brighter Choice Foundation purchased old School No. 3 in a decaying urban neighborhood in Albany’s West End. Working with BBL Construction Services in a Design/Build format, the Team renovated the 25,000 square foot structure and added another 25,000 square feet to the building. Very successful and very cost effective, the new facility became the Charter School Program’s flagship elementary school. The Historic Albany Foundation awarded this project the 2008 Preservation Initiative Award.
