<strong>WHERE:</strong> Construction site at the corner of Maryland Parkway and University Road
<strong>DETAILS:</strong> The 121,000 square-foot Greenspun Hall building will be a prominent landmark for the UNLV campus and the first project to begin the transition envisioned by "Midtown UNLV."
The five-story Greenspun Hall building will include classrooms, broadcast studios for the university's radio and television stations, and a 190-seat auditorium. The building will consolidate journalism and media studies, communication studies, criminal justice, public administration, social work and environmental studies into one building and will be the fifth largest academic building on the UNLV campus.
The Greenspun Family Foundation is contributing $37 million for the project--the largest single donation in UNLV history and one of the largest in state history. The family has worked closely with the College of Urban Affairs and UNLV for many years and will be honored at the special groundbreaking ceremony.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Renderings of Greenspun Hall will be available upon request.
