University of Wisconsin-Stout, Harvey Hall

Menomonie, Wisconsin

Harvey Hall is a four-story, academic and office building on the University of Wisconsin-Stout campus. The interior of Harvey Hall was renovated from top to bottom and restored to its original architectural character. The project modernized classroom and laboratory facilities with technology systems to encourage active learning. The goal of the project was to bring the building into the modern age while preserving the historical features and fixtures of the building. During the construction phase, the team found original lighting fixtures in the basement, which were restored and installed in the newly renovated Harvey Hall.
