About the Renovations

Ponce West Wing Renovations: The West Wing is set to open in August 2025, and we hope to open all rooms in Ponce for Fall 2025.  

Flagler Room:  We expect work to finish by the end of May.

New Chiller Plant: Work continues on the new air conditioning chiller plant behind the Proctor Library. The project is on schedule and expected to be completed in mid-July.

Solarium: The Solarium will reopen for campus events in April. Work on the freight elevator is done, and work on the passenger elevator is still underway. Both elevators will go offline this summer for two weeks for cab upgrades.

Construction Details

Scaffolding: In March 2024, scaffolding went up around the north end of the West Wing's exterior. Access will remain the same.

Flagler Room: The delicate restoration work above the Flagler Room was completed with caution and care, and we are happy to share that there was minimal damage to the ceiling.  We are now working on minor repairs.  Chandeliers will return to the space in mid-April after being cleaned and restored.  We are sanding and staining the wood floors, removing old carpet, and painting the walls to align with the original paint color.  We expect all of this work to be completed by the end of May.

Markland parking lot: Closed through summer 2025.
