As a new era begins at the university, The Review took some compelling pictures of the biggest projects that future students will take for granted. It only takes four or five years for a student body to forget about what came before it, and this year's seniors will graduate with memories of places the university's next generation will never know - Liquid A at The Stone Balloon, bid parties at The Ground Floor, living in Pencader, etc. These images will serve as a time capsule, documenting the beginnings of places the university's next generation will include in their memories and as evidence The Review can draw from in the future of an ever-changing university.
(From top to bottom)
From kegs to cafés: The former Alpha Tau Omega house is undergoing extensive renovations for a new international student apartment complex. Here workers are building the foundation for a café and an elevator that will reach the new fourth floor.
Caffé Gelato expansion: The university's best date place is expanding to include a full bar, more tables and a private meeting room, as it waits to knock out the wall between the current restaurant and the former Bert's Music building.
New dorm on Laird: The third phase of the Laird campus project, which includes George Read and Thomas McKean residence halls, is currently in progress, with a new residence hall which will house 600 students.
Three littles waiting for a big: Three Pi Kappa Alpha houses overlook a flattened plot and parking lot that will be the future Pike Row and home to a massive new fraternity house.
North Street Commons: New townhouses will be finished this summer on North Street and will be open for Fall students.
