Benedict College, Johnson Football Stadium
Benedict College, an HBCU located in Columbia, South Carolina, selected McMillan Pazdan Smith as their partner to master plan a newly purchased 61-acre tract of land into the state-of-the-art, multi-faceted LeRoy T. Walker Health and Wellness Center. The first phase of the master plan featured the 11,000-seat (expandable to 17,000 seats) Charlie W. Johnson Stadium for football and includes restrooms, concession stands, a first aid room, hospitality level for VIP seating, state-of-the-art press box, and end-zone-located locker rooms.
The second phase of the project features the remaining elements of the Leroy Walker Health and Wellness Center and includes baseball and softball fields, soccer, intramural fields, tennis courts, and a running track.
