Don't think I've seen this here yet, so I figured I'd post it.
Ohio State is in the middle of what officials call a $171.6 million shortcut to make room for more students on South Campus.
The project - dubbed the South Campus High Rise Renovation and Addition Project - will connect Park to Stradley, and Steeb to Smith, creating rooms for 360 more students by August 2013.
"It's basically building another building in between these two buildings," said Scott Conlon, director of projects for Facilities Design and Construction.
One such building will serve as a central lobby for Park and Stradley, and a similar building will provide a lobby to Steeb and Smith. Besides the new lobby and extra residence rooms in the existing towers, the project will add lounges and study rooms to the dormitories.
Launched in August 2010, TheMetropreneur.com is a local online resource devoted to small business development and entrepreneurship. Its aim is to tell the stories of Central Ohio's business community, foster regional economic development and assist entrepreneurs with its resource-heavy focus.
