Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Campus

This renovated Middle School/Magnet School serves Hartford’s North End and meets modern standards.

As a historic site, key features like its brick facade and auditorium were preserved. Outdated areas were updated to align with 21st-century educational needs, involving partial demolition and new construction. The campus hosts 800 students, including 400 from the Breakthrough North Magnet School.

Renovations were phased while the building was unoccupied.
