The refurbishment work will include restoring the brick and limestone on the exterior, replacing exterior doors and windows, installing clocks on the north and south faces of the tower, installing a new tile roof, and constructing a north entrance plaza.
The interior will be completely gutted and replaced with new wiring, plumbing and ventilation, and more elevators.
There was a plaza in the original design that was not built, said Brian McDonald, whose firm, Architects Weeks, Ambrose, McDonald Inc., is drawing the new plans along with Ross Fowler PC Architects.
We all feel honored to be able to work on it, given that it is the icon of the university, said, architect McDonald
