New Construction and Campus Upgrades
Opening just in time for move-in is Endicott’s new 150-space two-level parking deck, which will help ensure there is more parking available near student housing, easier access for commuter students, a designated visitor lot, and centralized parking for faculty, staff, and events.
Students will also see the significant progress we have made on the construction of the first phase of two new academic buildings, with a new structure fully in place next to the current Academic Center. Slated for completion in summer of 2019, the building will provide classroom, office, and state-of-the-art lab space, all with spectacular views of the pond and a future quad recreational area.
In July, Endicott broke ground on a 15,000 square-foot Ginger Judge Science Center Expansion, which will provide a home for the new engineering program, incubator and maker space, additional classrooms, and the new Gully’s. The new addition will open in September 2019.
The contractor for these construction projects is Windover Construction, and the architects are Bergmeyer Associates and Siemasko + Verbridge.
