Scope Of Work
The historic 1929 Fieldhouse underwent a renovation to create one of the most exceptional facilities in Division III, transforming the once dated space into one that now aligns academics and athletics for engaged learning and competition.
Built in 1929, the building originally housed all of Wittenberg’s athletic programs. In 1982, a new facility was brought online, and the 1929 building housed field sports and wrestling. By 2017, over 60% of the space was no longer useable. The construction project was a near-total gut of the building, with anything that was not original to the structure being removed. This project brought the finishes back to the original 1929 historic motif. The building houses three academic classrooms, an academic lab, a large meeting space, as well as coaches’ offices. Locker rooms for Football, Lacrosse, Soccer, and Field Hockey are located within the facility.
