LAC Early Childhood Center

The ground floor space of a building from 1951 by Emery Roth & Sons has been renovated to create a new Early Childhood Center for kids aged 0 to 6 years old. Located on Fifth Avenue near Washington Square Park, the entrance leads to a main lobby with an office and a large multipurpose room. This room has a movable wall to accommodate larger group activities. There are a total of six classrooms, including two nurseries, arranged around the central multipurpose space. The classrooms receive plenty of natural light due to the school's corner location. Staff and support areas are placed within sight of the halls and classrooms. These bright, creative, and collaborative spaces are a great addition to the Washinton Square Park neighborhood.
