September 30 update <\/h2>\n

Demolition of existing floor tile for the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at M\u0101noa\u2019s Campus Center Renovation Project is scheduled to begin the evening of Thursday, October 3. <\/p>\n

The demolition work will occur inside the barricaded public areas of the second floor of the Campus Center. <\/p>\n

The contractor will be using electric powered floor removal equipment and chipping tools to remove existing floor tiles and cement mortar. Varying degrees of noise and vibration adjacent to, and near the work areas are expected. <\/p>\n

Work is scheduled from 6 p.m. to 3 a.m. the following mornings, Mondays through Fridays, and is expected to take about three weeks. Access to Campus Center services will be maintained during construction. <\/p>\n

September 5 construction notice <\/h2>\n

University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at M\u0101noa\u2019s Campus Center<\/a> Renovation Project will begin the next phase of a Campus Center Master Plan to revitalize the 46-year-old facility. The project includes replacing tile flooring and updating lighting fixtures with energy efficient fixtures in the open public areas on levels 2 and 3. Construction is expected to begin on September 12.<\/p>\n

Although disruption is expected to be minimal, access to the center will be temporarily impacted as the forum seating area and bookstore entrance on level 2 will be barricaded during the initial phase of work. Students, faculty and staff are asked to be aware of the construction barriers and follow the wayfinding signage. <\/p>\n

“While construction can often be an inconvenience, we\u2019re confident that all reasonable precautions are being taken into consideration to minimize the impact on campus life,” said Kalei Stannich<\/strong>, a civil\/environmental engineering senior and Campus Center Board president. <\/p>\n

Access information<\/h2>\n

During construction, the west entry stairs (from Hemenway Hall and Sinclair Library) to Campus Center will be closed. Access to the food court, Jamba Juice, Simply-to-Go, Starbucks, Subway, Meetings and Event Services, Student Life and Development, Ticket and Information Office, restrooms, elevator and level 3 ballroom and meeting rooms are available using the mauka entrance from Campus Road, the east entry stairs from the courtyard or the first floor elevator entrance from the courtyard. <\/p>\n

Campus Center will be open normal business hours while these improvements are in progress. Accessible routes will be maintained during construction of this project. The current phase is targeted for completion by the start of spring 2020. Additional phases are slated to start soon after and include renovations to the Campus Center Ballroom, as well as the west entry and courtyard stairs. To better serve patrons going in and out of the Campus Center gathering spaces, elevator modernization and the replacement of air conditioning equipment are also included with the project. <\/p>\n

“We are happy to see these renovation plans come to fruition and can\u2019t wait to see Campus Center with a new look,” said Stannich. <\/p>\n
