Renovation Creates Functional Showplace
The $11.4 million renovation of Buzzard Hall on the Eastern Illinois University campus, Charleston, Illinois, added much-needed functional features while updating the building’s appearance. Buzzard Hall is the home of the 10,000-student university’s College of Education, departments of journalism and radio and television, and student publications. As a result of the two-year project, the structure now has modern classrooms, a new, two-story glass entry, an open two-story interior hub, and the largest auditorium on campus.
