More info on CAC changes

Is it me, or is the article incorrect. It says they they will begin raising Records Hall "over the next year." I thought that part of the CAC renovation was part of a much longer timeline?

i hope so...love that we're incorporating the raritan in to the plans
I'm stunned they are starting this so soon. Now, it's much easier and cheaper to raze buildings than build them, but you have to start somewhere.
The idea of a Barn-to-Banks quad is very exciting, and it looks very "Big Ten." Very pleased to see this starting.

Agree - such a beautiful part of the campus that has just never been utilized. Rutgers has been LONG overdue for a makeover.
I wouldn't interpret raising records hall with a full steam ahead with the project. I think it's a first step that will help get the ball rolling but that it will be a much longer timeline for the overall project.
Razing Records Hall and the smokestack eliminates two of the biggest eye sores on that side of College Avenue Campus. That alone is an improvement without building anything.

This is absolutely wonderful news. If they start tearing down buildings next summer the whole area probably won't be done until 2020. That whole area will be a mess of construction for a while but so worth it.
All good stuff...gotta start somewhere. Once the ball starts rolling, it's easier to gain traction and momentum for the overall makeover.
@BoroKnight - like the "Barn-to-Banks" moniker for this transformation....maybe it sticks.
