University Center
Expansion
The USI Board of Trustees
met in Indianapolis January 10 with an agenda that
included the presentation of preliminary plans for the
University Center Expansion/Renovation project, and
review of the 10-year capital improvement plan.
In other business, Holzman Moss Architecture of New York
City presented the design of the University Center
expansion and renovation project. The design
incorporates the building that was orginal library
space. That space was vacated
when the new Rice Library opened in 2006.
Architects using input from students, faculty, alumni,
and community representatives considered these as some
of the goals for the redesign:
• Improve entryway to the building
• Increase social interaction through new communal
gathering spaces
• Easier access to space that serves community outreach
functions
The first phase of the project is expected to be bid in
fall 2008. The architects are developing a master plan
for the facility in multiple stages, depending on
funding. |
