Temple University Students Experience a Renovated Wachman Hall on Their First Day of Classes

As Temple University students began classes for the Fall Semester, they utilized newly-renovated spaces within Wachman Hall – the school’s iconic building located along Broad Street on their North Philadelphia campus. Five levels of the twelve-story facility were completely renovated by Canuso Jorden in less than eleven months. The building now features state-of-the-art classrooms as well as multiple meeting, interactive, and support spaces on the Ground thru Fourth Floors. Included in the renovation was a structural infill of 4,900 square feet within an existing interstitial space at the first level.

In addition, new entrances were created along both Broad Street and Liacouras Walk that encompassed enclosing an existing four-story, open-air passageway, constructing a new circulation stair between the renovated floors, and creation of additional bathrooms on multiple floors. Additional information can be found on the project’s webpage located on Temple University’s Capital Projects website.
