Humane Society
Westland, Michigan
The renovation and expansion of the $6.9 million Michigan Humane
Society facility in Westland, was dedicated in May 2005 as the Berman
Center for Animal Care. The work that Blue Sky accomplished allows
the organization to fulfill its mission of providing quality service
and compassion to the animals that arrive at the MHS. The new 38,000
square foot facility also provides a friendly and inviting place
for the community to adopt companions.
The major improvements to this facility included a 200% increase
in the number of animals accommodated in the holding and adoption
area, large adoption counseling stations, a spacious and more efficient
front lobby, a cat housing village with floor to ceiling windows
instead of individual steel cages, a 60% larger veterinary medical
center with more exam and surgery rooms for increased numbers of
spay and neuter surgeries, an onsite classroom, equipment and materials
to reduce disease transmission, and state of the art materials to
reduce noise and create a more stress free environment.
Blue Sky was able to take this 1971 building, collaborate with
the dedicated professionals who know the Michigan Humane Society’s
mission, and create a stellar facility that has greatly improved
the way the Westland MHS conducts its business.
