Blakeley Hall

Originally constructed in 1926, Tufts Blakeley Hall will be a fully modernized 29,000 GSF residence hall. Although we are in the early design phases of this project, our goal is to provide better connections for students that reside in the building. Our scope includes creating a single, secure point of entry, modernizing building systems like heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, and providing common social areas. With improvements to mechanical systems comes the expectation to meet decarbonization goals, upgrade the building envelope, and develop other sustainability strategies. Accessibility and code compliance are being addressed as well.
