Demolition Wellons and Jacobs Hall

Disposition has been recommended for Jacobs Hall (1961; 24,026 GSF) and Wellons Hall (1965; 20,490 GSF) as both are former residence halls that have been unsuitable for dormitory use for more than ten years and have since been used primarily for storage and limited office functions. Each building is beyond its useful service life, is in deteriorated condition, and is consuming maintenance resources disproportionate to its value. Due to physical constraints, such as limited floor-to-floor heights, and overall condition, neither facility is considered a good candidate for cost-effective renovation or modernization. Accordingly, demolition is recommended to eliminate the ongoing maintenance burden and support future campus site planning and redevelopment. Project includes sitework, site utilities and landscaping. Added 2/13/2026: Evaluation will be based on the published expanded information criteria.
