Anspach Hall Renovation Central Michigan University has completed Phase II of the renovation of the 47 year old Anspach Hall academic building. This renovation project cost $14.1 million. The busiest building on campus will now have a student lounge on the main level. Most offices will stay in the same location, except for the Department of Philosophy and Religion. They will be located above the student lounge. The renovation included replacing the building’s lighting, electrical, ceiling, flooring, heating and cooling systems. These improvments will result in energy savings. The building also now complies with Americans with Disabilities Act standards. The Anspach Hall renovations comply with the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standards (LEED-certified). Please stop by to see the improvements.
