Denver University to build new, 35,000 m2 campus
The university has decided to launch the new construction of its 35,000 m2 campus located on the eastern part of the city, which will welcome the current 20,000 students within the next three years. Today, our students are spread over a dozen different sites and the main building, built in the 1960s, is dilapidated and no longer meets the requirements expected from a modern university site. The university has a budget of $135 million and will soon launch an architectural competition.
