  • To preserve the existing historical windows, barricades were installed at every window providing safety protection for workers while they preserved historic finishes
  • As one of the oldest buildings on campus, structural upgrades on Lincoln Hall brought the facility into compliance with mechanical, plumbing, fire, and seismic safety standards
  • In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, the building is now handicap accessible
