Hall stairwell and terrace redesign
Work on a new exit stairwell and renovated terrace has improved the use of the Henry F. Hall Building for courses, student activities and campus life.
Timeline
- Winter 2024 to September 2026
Overview
Facilities Management built a new exit stairwell as part of work to increase the Henry F. Hall Building’s capacity. The measure was required for safety and compliance with building code.
Beyond these essential upgrades, the project provided an opportunity to redesign and enhance the Hall terrace. The work also included targeted interior interventions on the fourth, sixth and seventh floors, ranging from functional alterations required to accommodate the new stairwell to the creation of a new student-focused space on the fourth floor.
Goals
- Compliance with building code and safety regulations
- Improved circulation within the Hall Building
- Transforming the terrace into a more accessible, aesthetic and useful space
- Enhancing interior spaces to better support student services and daily use
- Integration of Indigenous design into the terrace
