The Evergreen State College
The Phase I modernization began with a complete renovation of the north end of this main campus building. The entire existing TESC library was gutted to its concrete structure and the new remodeled Library constructed within 3 different floors of the existing 1970's building.
Phase II completely reworked all of the major divisions in the existing structure. These office areas include the President's Office and Boardroom, College Advancement, College Relations, Business Offices, Enrollment Services, and many other administrative areas.
One exciting new feature is a 3-story, glass-walled exterior stairway, which replaces the functionally obsolete existing lobby stairway at the building's main entry. It visually connects the three main student access floor lobbies and makes the main building lobby much more functional for gatherings and events.
