This is part of a $3.3 million SUNY Construction Fund project to upgraded the original Chemistry Building which has been largely unchanged since its construction in the 1960s. The project followed the recommendations of SUNY Construction Fund consultants Kallen & Lemelson of Manhattan. Included in the project is asbestos removal and new ventilated cabinets for storage. A second phase of the recommendations, the construction of a new Life Sciences Building for graduate and research laboratories is currently being designed.
