AC’s new Science Laboratory Building on the Washington Street Campus is on the verge of completion and will be ready to accommodate biology, chemistry and physics labs at the start of the 2010 spring semester.

Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and 45,000 square feet of space, the new building is adjacent to Warren Hall.

Bruce Cotgreave, director of the physical plant, says the process of moving existing labs from Warren Hall to their home in the new building will begin Dec. 11. Major renovations to Warren Hall then will begin as old lab spaces are turned into new, high-tech classrooms.

Construction of the $9.9 million Science Lab and renovations to Warren Hall were made possible by passage in 2007 of a $68 million bond issue.
