Hope you had a great Thanksgiving break and final week of classes! Reflecting on our weekly construction updates, the schedule is beginning to look similar week to week with lots of activities continuing progress. Also in preparation for Phase I opening (late 2013) and Phase II construction starting (June 1st) the new format consolidates information and keeps us looking forward to the total completion of  New Talley. We hope the new format keeps you informed of the week to week progress as well as the overall progress of the project!

Schedule Update

Contracted Completion Date: December 29, 2014

  • Note: Phase I Complete Late 2013

Project News and Announcements

1. Note from contractors about upcoming work and final exams: There are a some critical activities that need to take place on site during this time period, including the installation of the new electrical manhole in the service drive adjacent to Alexander Hall.  We will make efforts to reduce the amount of heavy activities on the west side of the site, but some noisy activities will have to take place.  We will make arrangements to not make any late night or early morning concrete pours during this time, but work can be expected to proceed from 7:00am through 6:00pm.

2. Earlier this month ARTS NC State and University Theatre sent out a 3-D memo regarding the closure of Stewart Theatre this December in order to prepare for Phase II construction.
