Alumni Commons (Student Housing)

 

SUNY Cobleskill and the Alumni Association Housing Corporation are planning to construct a 156 bed suite/townhouse style complex on a site located on the northwest side of campus alongside Schoharie Parkway North. The objective of the project is to provide additional residential opportunities for students that are safe, reliable, and relevant to today’s student experience.

UPD Johnson Hall Addition

 

Johnson Hall, located on the north side of route 7, is a single 1 ½ story wood structure that houses the University Police Department. A proposed addition to the existing building will provide a new handicapped accessible entrance and reception area, interview rooms, ADA compliant toilets and locker rooms, and offices and work areas needed to address processing, confidentiality, and public safety.

Sidewalk Construction for Safety

 

With the opening of the Center for Environmental Science and Technology it has become necessary for the safety of students attending classes at the facility to have a sidewalk constructed from the intersection of Route 7 and Schoharie Parkway North to Saratoga Avenue and then on to the new building. Project will consist of an eight foot wide asphalt sidewalk approximately 1,615 feet long with curbing, curb cuts, and lighting as necessary.

 

Project Schedule:

Design Completion - August 2012

Construction Completion – August 2013 (phase 1), August 2014 (phase 2)

Refurbish Water Tank and Upgrade Major Waterlines

 

SUNY Cobleskill receives its supply of water from the Village of Cobleskill municipal system that fills the school's 500,000 gallon storage tank which is located at the northwest edge of campus. Municipal water feeds the campus system through a meter pit and pump station located near Warner Hall in the northeastern area of the campus. This water is pumped into the tank at night during low demand and supplies the campus during the day. The high water level in the tank is at elevation 1,135. The existing water storage tank base elevation is at approximately 1,100 ft. The storage tank was cleaned and inspected in 2000 as part of a contract for water supply system upgrades. To extend the life of the tank a full refurbishing is planned for the summer of 2013. The project will also include replacement of many of the main waterlines throughout campus to provide the necessary fire flow rates to most of the buildings on campus.

 

Project Schedule:

Design Completion – December 2012

Construction Completion – August 2013

Getting Around Campus    

View Map

 

 

The two entrances on the upper level to Knapp Hall may need to be closed at various times this week and possible early next week (depending on the weather) to allow for installation of handrails for the exterior stairs and ramps. To maintain two means of egress from the building, only one of the entrances will be closed at any one time.

 

All other entrances and exits are currently open for all buildings, except around the Center for Agriculture and Natural Resources building construction site.
