University of Tennessee
Replacing the outdated Carolyn P. Brown University Center, this new facility was strategically constructed in two major phases connected by a two-story sky bridge, providing a seamless transition between the buildings. This first phase featured the University鈥檚 major dining facility and Vol Shop bookstore. Home to seven new dining concepts and flexible spaces for meeting and studying, phase one is the focal point of campus, welcoming students and visitors to the University. Phase two included a 1,000-seat auditorium, ballrooms, lecture and meeting rooms, additional food service venues, production kitchen, recreation space, and office suites for student organizations and student life administration. Located in the most congested vehicular and pedestrian center of campus, adjacent to the nationally recognized Neyland Stadium, the project team worked carefully and efficiently to maintain normal operations in all of the surrounding areas.
