About the Gant Science Complex
The Gant Science Complex project in Storrs, CT transformed a 1970’s building into a vibrant, flexible hub of teaching, research, and collaboration. Renovation of a 290,000 SF, 50-year-old science building, while occupied, was a massive and complex undertaking. The project had many phases and close coordination was required for adjacent utility tunnel work.
