The Project
The WMU Mall Expansion work planned for next year continues the WMU Campus Development Plan initiated in 1970 and the 2000 Campus Master Plan. The expansion will enhance campus walkability, this project will remove the section of W Michigan Avenue from Henry Hall to the traffic signal at Ring Road, along with the adjacent parking lot. Vehicular traffic will be replaced with a new Gateway Entrance feature, pedestrian walking paths, seating areas and reimagined landscaping encompassing the iconic Gathering Tree Fountain. The project anticipates Sustainable SITES Certification and will include several sustainable design and construction elements. New wayfinding and campus circulation aim to enhance the ease of campus navigation. We have finished the schematic design phase which was featured at a booth during Bronco Bash and have started detailed design development.
