Pelham Ridge Elementary School was designed by Goodwyn Mills Cawood. Pelham Ridge Elementary is the first new construction school designed for the newly-formed Pelham City School Board. The new elementary school is a two-story brick and stone building with wood elements, which reflects the desired character and materiality of the existing schools in the district. Pelham Ridge incorporates a variety of learning environments in addition to the typical classroom. These supplemental learning spaces include two “break-out” learning spaces, a flexible classroom, and two courtyards. Two of the classroom wings adjacent to the courtyards are designed to function as storm shelters and meet the Alabama Building Commission’s state standard for storm shelters, ICC 500.

Trenholm State Community College is currently in the process of architecturally re-branding their Patterson Campus. Trenholm State Community College’s Automotive Collision Repair Program was moved from the Trenholm Campus to the Patterson Campus, and in doing so, will utilize an existing 18,727sf metal building/warehouse which was conducive for the collision repair area. Additional square footage was added to the building to encompass two classrooms, a resource room, offices, tool storage, and a paint shop. The paint shop consists of two new pre-fabricated paint booths, mixing station, and prep area A new façade was developed to enhance the overall appearance of the building. This building is the first of many to feature the new architectural style.
Trenholm State Community College’s Administration and Financial Aid Building project included a new metal retrofit roof and the renovation of an existing building that houses administration offices, financial aid and other student amenities as part of there “Student Success” center to allow for additional classrooms. The existing spaces were updated with new finishes and associated energy efficient mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work. A new entrance and sitework were designed to give a good first impression to students and administrators entering campus.
Trenholm State Community College purchased state of the art prefabricated welding booths for their welding program. However, the buildings electrical system could not accommodate the loads for the booths. Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood was hired to prepare the architecture and engineering drawings to allow the program to use their new welding stations.

Metamora, Indiana
Completed 1846
"The Whitewater Canal gave new life to the towns, extended commerce, and improved social conditions. It educated the people and fitted them for greater achievements when the era of railways came it contributed largely to the welfare and happiness of the people."
- Lee Ault, Educator The Whitewater Canal, 1900
The significance of the 15-mile Whitewater Canal was not in its ability to create a profit, but rather its effect on the economic growth of the Whitewater River Valley, considered the gateway to the interior of Indiana. Before the canal, travel was challenging. Most waterways in Indiana were only navigable by canoe, and the alternative - horse and wagon - was difficult, slow and expensive.
One of the notable features along the canal is the 71-foot Duck Creek Aqueduct, the oldest covered wooden aqueduct in the U.S. The original aqueduct was an open trough that washed away in the flood of 1847. Instead of rebuilding all of the destroyed portions, the builder ingeniously acquired a covered bridge in its early stages of construction and adapted it to replace the open trough.
While both the canal and aqueduct were eventually abandoned, the State of Indiana restored them for recreational use in 1948. The area subsequently became the Whitewater Canal State Park.
