Housekeeping Note: The blog now lives most vibrantly at a USF-hosted site. Please use the following for bookmarking, and it will be the more or less “permanent” home for the heart of campus blog moving forward.

Anyone visiting campus this summer will have encountered a lot of construction work that appears to be suspiciously close to the site of the eventual Center for Science and Innovation.
This, like last summer’s work, involves utility relocation and upgrading that both helps our existing campus and also sets the stage for the eventual construction of the new center.
The work this summer, largely centered between the Harney Science Center and the Gleeson library, primarily addresses electrical lines. As you can see from the floorplans on the new CSI website, (see the “Garden Level”,) the floor that features an atrium in its main section, also has a lot of electrical utilities in its western most section. (For those of you who live and love the Harney Science Center, this is a segment that will attach to the 1st floor, which is mostly underground, and yes, that’s where physicists and astronomers live.)
