Construction Update
University Hall
Construction on University Hall is nearing completion, after which the computer
network will be installed and furniture will be moved in. Landscaping is being
done now. The tentative date for moving into the new facility will be late summer.
Main Entrance/Loop Road
The project is progressing on schedule, and will be completed by this summer.
(We appreciate everyone's patience with the necessary utility interruptions.)
The main entrance project is part of the Classroom Replacement Building II project.
There are no arches planned to extend over the roadway. A large fountain, similar
to one at Surrey Center, will be installed.
History Walk
The work along the History Walk has been completed, however, there was some slight
damage from the ice storm (mainly the cabling for trees). The cannon, previously
located in front of Payne Hall, is to be installed adjacent to the museum, and
footings are being poured now for the carriage that will hold the cannon. The
museum is open daily, from 9 a.m.-6 p.m.
Student Housing
Conceptual site plans have been drawn up. A market study, conducted over the
ASU Pipeline, shows a demand for 558 students plus athletes.
Student Center
The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) have been sent to select an architect and
investment banker, and these will be selected soon. Construction is expected
to get underway on the approximately 50,000 square foot building this summer.
It will be sited between the library and Hardy Hall.
Bellevue Hall
Work on Bellevue Hall-the oldest building on campuswill begin in late February
and is expected to take about 10 months to complete. The cost of this work is
about $800,000.
Old Academic Buildings
In preparation for the demolition of the old academic buildings, work will begin
in a few weeks to reroute the utilities. This project will involve an excavation
completely around all six buildings. The excavation will only disturb a couple
of hundred feet at a time, but the crew will progress entirely around all six
buildings. Access to all buildings will be maintained at all times. Some utility
service interruptions to these buildings are to be expected.
