Tunxis Community College – Master Plan Development
The scope of this work at Tunxis Community College is intended to
include construction of Phase I and design of Phase II development of
the Master Plan. The project is approximately 104,000 GSF of new
construction which incorporates a new library, general-purpose
classrooms, and laboratory spaces for the Science and Technology
Programs. The Library Building will include spaces for a Student
Development Center, Student Activity Center/Student Lounge, and a small
Art Gallery. Phase I also includes demolition of the Fisher Building.
Bond allocation for design and construction was has been approved;
project completion is anticipated for fall in 2007.
Phase II includes major renovations to the 300 Building for student
service spaces including student government offices and meeting rooms,
student activities, guidance and counseling, wellness and general
multi-purpose space. Phase II also includes demolition of the 200
Building which will be replaced with a two or three-story new structure
housing faculty offices, departmental offices, and administration. The
partial demolition of the existing faculty office wing in the 100
Building will allow for the construction of a new auditorium.
Renovations to the remainder of the 100 Building will provide additional
spaces for a business and industry classroom, student activities,
expansion of the bookstore, and relocating the childcare facility for
better site access. It is anticipated that a request for starting design
of Phase II will be made during the summer 2008, with construction to be
bonded during the summer of 2010 for a total project of $55.3ml.
