Gasson Hall Restoration

University officials and construction workers held a “topping off” ceremony on August 29 to commemorate the completion of an 18-month project to restore the tower of Gasson Hall—our “signature building,” in the words of project manager Jacob Mycofsky.

The tower’s exterior facade was replaced, as well as the cast stone and some of the stained glass windows in the building’s south wall.

Joining the celebration were (in foreground, from left) President William P. Leahy, SJ, Mary Nardone, associate vice president of planning and construction, Mycofsky, and John Romeo, director of capital construction. Work to renovate the building’s other walls and improve surrounding landscaping will continue and is scheduled for completion by the summer of 2011.
