The Charles R. Forman Center, dedicated in January 1984, was designed by Fort Lauderdale architect James Knox Pownall. The center was planned as the home for the variety of health science programs offered by the college, offering classroom and laboratory space.
The Forman Center was re-dedicated in 1999 as the Lucy W. and Charles R. Forman Center, reflecting the contributions of Dr. Forman and his wife, Lucille Watson Forman. Dr. Forman, a veterinarian, school board member, and a member of one of Broward's pioneer families, was a staunch supporter of educational issues in Broward and was influential in the growth and development of Broward Community College.
