Corona Partners led the development of a 14,000 SF Early Education Center and Regional Office for Elwyn’s Early Learning Services Program. We strategically planned Elwyn’s regional office to accommodate their new hybrid work approach, providing training and flexible workspaces for staff serving over 1,700 children in West and South Philadelphia. This project also included constructing five classrooms equipped with cutting-edge teaching technology for children ages three to five with special needs. Funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), we revamped an existing playground area with state-of-the-art equipment and natural materials to align with the curriculum. Custom murals, interactive artworks, and environmental graphics were integrated throughout the facility to engage young minds.

Corona Partners is the owner’s representative for the renovation and fit-out of 350,000 sf of this historic former Provident Mutual Life building in west Philadelphia. Corona Partners is managing multiple contractors working simultaneously on the base building and the fit-out of four separate tenant spaces. Corona Partners is also supporting the documentation required for a complex funding that includes New Market Tax Credits, Historic Tax Credits, and a Pennsylvania RACP Grant.

Corona Partners led the gut renovation of a compromised historic property that had been vacant for 10+ years for Elwyn Adult Behavioral Outpatient Services. The team remediated a failing building envelope using Passive House Construction Standards, surpassing the energy code for new buildings by 40% and reducing the size of the HVAC system by 25%. By modifying the design and implementing a more efficient floor plan, we reduced the square footage by more than 45% while increasing the number of group therapy rooms by 20%, providing the opportunity for Elwyn to expand and grow their services in less space.
