A press release has more on the Varsity House, soccer field, gym, and other projects.

The Valley News has more on the Trustees’ latest planning.   Deciding to build a new Varsity House alongside a new East Stand has allowed the school to include in its already-begun renovation of Alumni Gym the removal of the recent Manley varsity strength training center.   A student fitness center will take its place in the top of the gym, replacing the existing Kresge facility.

Dartmouth will build a new east stand at Memorial Field adjacent to a three-level varsity fieldhouse according to a press release.   The building will overlook the football field and its upper level will have a good view of the game.   [Updated 06.18.2005.]

The Facilities Planning Office has posted plans for the ongoing major renovations of Alumni Gym designed by Lavallee/Brensinger Architects of Littleton, designers of the Labatts “beer academy” in Manchester.   The work includes installing a mezzanine in the old drill hall (the upper gym space) to create a fitness center there and replacing the squash courts in the Squash Courts building with multipurpose spaces.

The D reports on the renovation of Alumni Gym, which will include the restoration of the gymnasium (i.e. drill hall) space to its original volume by the removal of a recent suspended ceiling.

Dartmouth plans to demolish the massive entance stair, built in two stages between 1909 and 1913, at the front of the historic Alumni Gymnasium as the Planning Board minutes of Jan. 4 explain. [pdf]   The school will build a new stair and entrance ramp.
