Atheneum Hall was built in 1966 and was the original student center for the University. At the request of Coastal's Alumni and with approval of the Board of Trustees, the intent of this project is to renovate Atheneum Hall into an Alumni facility, which provides office space for Alumni Relations Staff, dining and meeting facilities for Alumni events, and two suites for visiting faculty, distinguished guest speakers and dignitaries of the University.
The renovation will consist of converting half of the office space in the facility into meeting space and dining space and the installation of a new kitchen and prep area. The project will also address the deferred maintenance needs in this 42 year old building to include roofing, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems.
