Soaring costs lead to revised plans for student center at Miami University
Oct 30, 2009 12:49 PM
From The Cincinnati Enquirer: Faced with projected costs for a new student center at least $20
million more than expected, Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, is scaling back plans and will incorporate three existing buildings into the design. The university had planned to tear down Culler, Gaskill and Rowan halls to build an $80 million facility to house student
groups, recreational space and dining. But
estimated costs of more than $100 million changed the plan. Instead,
Miami will renovate the existing buildings and build in between. That
will cost $65 million and can be done in two phases.
