Erie Hall Building Demolition and Replacement

The Pennsylvania State University selected Sasaki Associates, Inc. to provide full‑service architectural and engineering design for the replacement of Erie Hall on the Behrend campus. The project calls for a new 57,000‑64,000 gsf freestanding building that consolidates student‑life, fitness, police, and counseling functions, meeting LEED sustainability standards and integrating with the campus “front‑door” master‑plan vision. The design team will progress through programming, schematic design, design development, construction documents, and construction administration under a Construction Manager‑at‑Risk delivery method. The construction phase is scheduled to begin in September 2020 and achieve substantial completion by July 2022. • New building size: approximately 57k–64k gross sf delivering ~49k assignable sf. • Required services: programming, schematic, design development, construction documents, construction administration; LEED‑certified, CMAR delivery. • Timeline: award May 2019 → construction start Sep 2020 → completion Jul 2022.
