Cobb said the project will be north of Ray Morris Hall at the northwest corner of Stadium Drive and Wings Up Way. Cobb said the Johnson Hall renovation has already completed the programming process.

The work includes updated building’s systems and equipment along with reallocating classrooms, labs, student spaces and office areas for more room. As a part of the business college improvements, Cobb said the adjacent Foster Hall plans to be demolished in July. Cobb said the building should be removed by November.
