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 February, opening back up in July 2026.
- February marks the end of Truss level structural upgrades, and focuses on ground-level activities.
- Asbestos abatement on the roof of the structure will continue through the first week of February, with standardized safety procedures in place for workers and the public.
- After abatement, concrete floor demolition and removal of the building’s wood siding will commence.
- Once the concrete flooring is removed, trenching for future plumbing, electrical, and elevator installs will occur.
- As always, chemical runoff management is always managed meticulously and monitored daily with safeguards in place due to our proximity to the beautiful waterway.
