A new Visitor Contact Station at Cedar Breaks National Monument in Brian Head, Utah, was made possible by the community-funded Centennial Challenge program. This impressive 3,400-square-foot building has replaced outdated facilities and now offers indoor and covered outdoor spaces for educational programs, interpretive activities, and special events. Additionally, visitors can benefit from an information desk, a partner sales area, restrooms, and other essential amenities.
360 Engineering was part of the Anderson Hallas Architects design team, which contributed to the creation of this fully electric new facility. Our scope of work included conducting an energy model and life cycle cost analysis. The restroom building features an energy recovery ventilator, and the visitor area and offices are equipped with efficient infrared electric heat. This project has resulted in a highly energy-efficient and easily maintainable facility for the park staff. We are excited about the positive impact this will have on the visitor experience and the environment.
