Penn State East Halls Project Hits Halfway Mark

+See All News Posts
The East Halls project is past the halfway mark

It’s official, more than half of The Pennsylvania State University’s East Halls residence halls have been renovated or built. DLA+, with Clayco and Mackey Mitchell Architects, was selected as part of the design-build team to transform the residence hall campus at Penn State. The multi-year project will have a total of fourteen renovated halls and two new halls, housing more than 4,5000 freshman.

Starting in 2014, we now have eight residence halls under our belt – two new halls and six renovated halls. The project still has three more years to go and eight more residence halls to renovate. The newly renovated buildings have seen a 75% reduction in student requests to move out of East Halls, a big win for both Penn State housing staff and students.

To read more about the current state of the renovation, check out the Design Teams feature in Talking Stick Magazine.
