Penn State Board Of Trustees Approves Hamilton Hall Renovations

Penn State’s Board of Trustees approved renovations to the Hamilton Hall residence building on Friday. The plans would complete renovations that began in 2019 to existing bathrooms and add some bed capacity to the West Halls dorm.

Originally built around 1950, Hamilton Hall holds up to 626 students and hasn’t seen renovations to many of its 76-year-old bathrooms since original construction.

The renovations would begin in fall 2024 with no set end date for completion. Renovation would go through one section of bathrooms at a time. Additionally, Hamilton Hall will gain capacity for an extra 39 beds with renovations to storage space on the third and fourth floors.

Renovations for the building are not to exceed $15.9 million.

The renovations are not the only dorm renovations happening on campus. Penn State recently completed renovations on East Halls and is expected to begin work on Pollock Halls in 2025.
