Lafferre Hall project renews historic campus building complex
The $24.3-million "Lafferre Hall-Reconstruct 1922 Addition" project replaces 25,000 gross square feet (GSF) of substandard space with 60,000 GSF of new construction in a four-story building. The project is the first of a multiphase, $150 million College of Engineering Master Plan to renovate and improve general circulation, accessibility, way-finding, classroom and research space. Phases VI and VII of the plan are for the renovation of Engineering Building West across Sixth Street from the Lafferre Hall complex, and the construction of a five-story building containing 124,620 GSF of teaching and laboratory research space for the entire college.
