ASUW Shell House Renovation
About the Project
The ASUW Shell House is undergoing a historic renovation to create a modern community space while restoring the vibrant history of the structure.
This 100+ year old building will undergo structural and aesthetic upgrades, window replacement and refurbishment, new feature stairs and elevator, landscaping improvements, and upgraded electrical, mechanical, and plumbing systems.
Key Upcoming Events:
- The Ship Canal Trail will continue to be closed off to the public through January, opening
back up in July 2026. - January will see a continuation of interior structural upgrades at the roof, truss, and
foundation level. - Trusses which have experienced aging and damage over the years will continue to be reset
into place and structurally affixed. - January is the start of some exterior underground mechanical and electrical systems which
will connect to the inside of the building after February 2026. - February will see a large amount of demolition and abatement of hazardous materials.
January will start the prep work for these activates. - The building will continue to produce historic salvage material, being stored for reuse at the
end of the project.
