Many recent and planned construction projects at MIT

In addition to this week's announcement of a new computer science complex, there have been many other building construction projects on the MIT campus in the last two years, with more to come. They include:

��������������������������� A new $18 million pool and athletic facility announced last week, to be located between the Johnson Athletics Center and the Stratton Student Center (Buildings W34 and W20). Construction is scheduled to begin in June 1998 and be ready for occupancy in September 2000.
��������������������������� The new biology building (Building 68), which opened in 1994.
��������������������������� The Jack C. Tang Center for management Education at the Sloan School (Building E51), dedicated last April.
��������������������������� The cogeneration plant (Buildings 42 and 43), which was finished in the summer of 1995. It provides most of MIT's heating, cooling and electricity while cutting costs and pollution.
��������������������������� Ongoing renovations in Building 16 and 56. The project began a year and a half ago; work in Building 56 is about to be finished, and workers will begin on Building 16 in January.
��������������������������� The renovated music library (Building 14E), which reopened in late October and was dedicated this month.
��������������������������� Renovations in the School of Architecture and Planning (Buildings 7 and 5), completed this fall.
��������������������������� A complete interior renovation of Senior House (Buildings E2 and E3), which reopened in its new configuration for students at the beginning of this academic year.
