Got bonding money from the state, and massive private donations. Scheduled for completion mid-2023. It will go near the corner of 15th and Washington, really improving that entrance to campus.
The current maintenance sheds at that site will be removed, as that function is being shifted to the old OSU Foundation area at 35th and Western. Quite an impressive new structure going up out there.
This might be the last new construction on campus for a bit (other than the west Reser grandstand). I've read they will now concentrate on renovating and repurposing existing buildings. A great place to start would be the old power plant, even though I have also heard that bringing it up to code environmentally might be cost-prohibitive.
