Scope Of Work
In 2006, Antinozzi Associates prepared a feasibility study for the University to convert the 10-story Schine Residence Hall (built in 1975) from a traditional dormitory plan into a contemporary residential facility.
Vacated in the 1990’s and unoccupied since, we prepared four (4) schemes to illustrate a variety of living/learning configurations. Though, the schemes successfully transitioned traditionally isolated three (3) and four (4) bedroom plans with integrated common study and social interactive areas, cost factors per number of beds needed for future student growth required the University to consider building a new residence hall.
The new design, matching the Victorian-era building vernacular on campus, will be a four-story, 220 bed facility incorporating all of the modern residence hall amenities – activity/game room, study areas, an on-site laundry room, and security station. Construction is planned to begin as early as mid-2015 on this $18-$20M project.
