Renovations to Meredith Hall, one of Drake’s most beloved and used academic buildings, are progressing despite winter weather conditions.

Along with mechanical, electrical, and fire sprinkler system installations, new ceiling systems are are taking shape throughout the building. In addition to interior improvements, a much needed refinish of the exterior is scheduled for spring.  

The project is scheduled to wrap up prior to the start of the Fall 2023 semester, and the finished product will be similar to the original 1965 construction, honoring the building’s historic and renowned mid-century architectural-style.
