As Stevens’ reputation grows, additional space is needed to house its students and equipment in order to improve the staff and student experience. The Howe Center, particularly the third level, will be renovated to accommodate staff, students, and visitors when the University Center Complex (UCC) is open and ready to provide additional room for the class of 2025.
The project began on Monday, April 11, 2022, and will finish on Friday, July 29, 2022. “Renovation to the 3rd Floor of the Wesley J. Howe Center to create new private office spaces, reception area, and pantry for the University Events Department,” Matthew Cunningham, Editor Emeritus of The Stute, wrote in an email to The Stute, “in addition to a new Mother’s Room, a more enhanced, modernized Fielding Classroom, and new restrooms and storage areas.
It is anticipated that “the construction activities required for this project will create moderate noise disruptions throughout the construction period.” In addition, during the process of the construction, the surrounding area will be “closed off to the public,” although the staff and students will still be able to access the STEP Department.
“Work hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m.– 4 p.m. but may occasionally occur outside those hours as required,” Cunningham added. “All construction work will be under the supervision of the Department of Design & Construction of the Facilities and Campus Operations Division.”
