Current and Future Projects

Summer 2024

Crozier Boulevard Pedestrian Promenade and Enabling Parking Project

Construction project timeline: Summer 2024-Spring 2025

Identified several years ago in a pedestrian safety study focused on minimizing pedestrian-vehicular conflict, the Crozier-Williams Boulevard project has been a priority in the College’s two most recent master plans (1999, 2018). The boulevard will be converted from a roadway/parking area into a pedestrian boulevard that connects the community from the southernmost to the northernmost points of our campus. These campus improvements will connect our community and provide a safer campus for us to navigate.

Crozier-Williams Remodel

Construction project timeline: Summer 2024-February 2025

This construction project is a fundraising priority for the Defy Boundaries Campaign. The scope of the project is focused on four key areas that impact the way that the building is activated for the broad campus community:

The entry along Cro Blvd
Oasis
Cro’s Nest and the common area between Cro’s Nest and the second floor bathrooms
1962 Room

Silfen Track and Field Renovations

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT TIMELINE: SUMMER 2024

The track and field are home to the Camel Athletic field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, track and field, and rugby teams and to the college’s club sports and recreational activities. The field will be transformed into a high-performance turf field, designed for optimal athlete safety and high-definition broadcasting. Shelters will be built to protect athletes from the elements. The track will be reconstructed with the leading choice in surfaces among elite NCAA and international track programs. The new surface is designed to provide optimal shock absorbency and return energy for daily running and competitions. It will also include zones to ensure optimum safety for high jump and pole vault athletes. Sprint lane extensions and a two-tone design will accompany the track painted in Connecticut College’s colors.

Ongoing until Summer 2025

Bathroom privacy improvements

Ongoing

The College is in the process of making modifications for increased privacy in residential hall bathrooms. This project, which started in the summer 2022, will be ongoing over the next three years.

Spring-Summer 2025

Crozier Boulevard Pedestrian Promenade & Crozier-Plex Pedestrian Connector

Construction project timeline: Spring 2025-Fall 2025

Identified several years ago in a pedestrian safety study focused on minimizing pedestrian-vehicular conflict, the Crozier-Plex project has been a priority in the College’s two most recent master plans (1999, 2018). This project will take place in four phases and will involve the removal of the roadway and parking between Cro and the Plex to more effectively link these two buildings creating a unified campus open space. As a result of this project, parking will be redistributed throughout the campus creating enabling parking projects.

Phase 1: Enabling Parking Lot

Phase 2: Cro Boulevard

Phase 3: Enabling Parking Lot TBD

Phase 4: Crozier-Plex Pedestrian Connector
