Construction Update
Michael Hall Undergoes Renovations
 |
| St. Peter's College c. 1925 |
Built in 1921 as a boys' boarding school, Michael Hall is the key pillar of SPC's $15 million Revitalization Initiative.
The goal to revitalize Michael Hall is to provide a learning space that is safe, accessible and supports quality, life-long learning to meet the needs of 21st century students and community members.
Renovations to the 46,000 square-foot building, a designated provincial heritage property, will be done in a manner that ensures and maintains its historic character.
The transformation of Michael Hall began summer 2009 thanks to a $3 million investment from the Province of Saskatchewan, coupled with $6 million from the Government of Canada's Knowledge Infrastructure Program and $3 million from donations to the College's Key to Success Campaign.
New Elevator: One part of the renovation includes the construction of a new elevator for the four-story building to improve accessibility. The new elevator site has been prepared, including an 80-foot shaft, which is expected to be installed in November.
Building Renos: Beginning January 2010, fourth-floor classroom and cultural spaces will be renovated to meet science, health, fine-art and drama program needs.
The remaining floors, including the basement, will undergo similar renovations to renew Michael Hall's infrastructure and enhance teaching, technology and programming.
Every step is being taken to ensure university classes and other College programming will continue as usual.
