The $112.5 million project is an expansion of the existing Vanier Hall and includes 277,700 sf of new construction and 145,000 sf of renovation. Designed by Diamond Schmitt Architects, the building will provide additional research space for neuroscience, economics, experimental psychology, management, and public policy. The facility features a 225-seat tiered lecture hall, a 120-seat classroom, a multistory atrium, and a green roof. The project team includes general contractor Aecon Group and structural consultant Halsall Associates.
