ANAHEIM, CALIF. — C.W. Driver Cos., as general contractor, and Ware Malcomb, as architect, have completed the development of Braille Institute Anaheim Center, a 14,700-square-foot building located on the institute’s existing campus in Anaheim. Located at 527 N. Dale Ave., the $5.4 million building replaces the institute’s former multi-structure facility and provides a larger unified space to serve more visually impaired children, adults and seniors from Orange, Los Angeles and Riverside counties. The property includes a 2,500-square-foot learning resource center featuring a library, computer lab, low-vision consultation area and counseling space. Additionally, the facility features designated areas for Braille reading education and self-defense training, as well as a 2,100-square-foot multipurpose room, four classrooms, an art and ceramics studio, training kitchen and multiple technology labs. The new project also features exterior gardens, gathering spots, a dog run and an open-air courtyard.
