Phase One of the $7.8 million Ag Quad renovation project is largely complete.
Over winter break, construction on Cornell’s campus included the demolition of a building on West Campus — 722 University Avenue — and a newly renovated Barton Hall.
“‘Cornell Health’ is not so much a ‘rebranding’ of Gannett as it is a new name for a nearly entirely new facility, with the original building undergoing extensive demolition and complete renovation,” said Sharon Dittman, associate director of community relations for Gannett.
