Phase II of the North Campus Revitalization construction project, spanning from the Albert W. Brown Building to the high rises, is underway.
The North Campus Revitalization Project will create new, accessible ways of getting around campus, make needed improvements to infrastructure such as pipes and conduits, and add green space that will beautify the college.
This work is similar to the work completed two years ago and includes replacing our aged water, sewer, and storm drainage systems. This phase of work will focus on the areas of the “spine” between the Albert Brown Building and Harrison Hall, but also includes the realignment of Residence Drive through lot A.
The project will:
Create new pedestrian access through the core of campus from the high rises to Hartwell
Create new social gathering spaces around campus
Create new accessible entrances to all buildings on campus
Add new green-space, plantings, and a net of 200 new trees to campus
Replace thousands of feet of old pipes, conduits, and wiring on campus
Improve stormwater management on campus by introducing bio-retention areas and porous pavement that controls runoff
