Document Description
The project involves installing a down escalator along the 22 foot staircase in the primary circulation area of the Science Center's Phase 1 building, the Ahmanson Building. The escalator was originally designed into the building, which was constructed in 1998. However, construction costs increased radically between budget approval and the start of construction, and it was necessary to reduce the budget scope in order to maintain the budget. Therefore, the escalator scope was removed from the project.
