This project was a complete demolition and remodeling of a 12,000 square foot, four-story building. In addition to the new roof, window enlargement, and exterior enhancements, all MEP systems were upgraded with more energy efficient options. The building provides a template for the co-working office space of the future for the University. It also provides the opportunity to vacate significant physical space on campus by the IT department, and to open this space up for future academic programming. In short, without an immense capital expenditure this project provides a better working model for the university while also creating desperately needed “found” space for new higher and better uses.
