State officials this week inked a $28.1 million contract with Miron Construction, of Neenah, to build a new academic building at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville.
The job calls for building UW-Platteville‘s new Sesquicentennial Hall, which would join the school’s Engineering Hall to make a 200,000-square-foot academic complex bringing Platteville’s engineering, computer science and renewable energy programs together in the same space.
Miron Construction beat out six rivals for the project in bidding that closed on August 25. The state Department of Administration recently inked a contract with the company for the project.
The new building will have three classrooms, five teaching laboratories, faculty offices, conference rooms, a coffee shop and other features. The school is also seeking LEED certification for the project and is planning for the building to have a green roof.
BWBR Architects, of Madison, designed the building, which is expected to cost $40.6 million overall.
Construction is expected to get underway this fall and wrap up in spring of 2022.
