Others may look ahead to summertime eagerly anticipating beach trips, camping, cookouts, etc., but for Campus Construction Update, summer means just one thing: facility projects at Bates.
Here’s how the summer went down, CCU-style:
![]() | Campus Construction Update: Aug. 8, 2024Russell Street Field begins its transition from grass to multipurpose turf, our newest residence at 96 Campus Avenue, gets on the de-fence, and the long-awaited new bell striker arrives in the Hathorn Hall bellfry. |
![]() | Campus Construction Update: July 10, 2024Bates’ recent architectural adventures — new Bonney Science Center and renovated Chase and Dana halls — have emphasized bringing daylight indoors. The work at 96 Campus Avenue continues the theme. |
![]() | Campus Construction Update: June 7, 2024As always, this summer’s facility initiatives comprise a nice variety: new kilns for the Olin Arts Center, specialized labs for new faculty, and two biggies, conversion of the former convent at 96 Campus Avenue into a residence and the transformation of Russell Street Field from a soccer pitch into a multipurpose field available for all active Bobcats. |
