The University of Dayton began construction on a $20-million campus residence hall in May 2003. Housing up to 400 first and second year students, the 160,000-sf facility will also accommodate conference rooms, classrooms, a free-standing chapel and a food emporium. Operations to be relocated to the facility include the bookstore, campus ministry offices, credit union, and post office. The four-story project is slated to open in August 2004. Miller-Valentine Group is the general contractor and one of the project architects is Edge and Tinney Architects. The University is also engaged in constructing the $9-million ArtStreet project in the student neighborhood adjacent to campus. The residential and arts complex will house 56 students and art/performance studios, as well as five new single-family homes housing 25 students. The university plans to renovate or replace residential space for 1,000 students between now and 2010. Also under construction is a $4-million baseball facility which the men’s team will begin using in spring 2004.
