The project consisted of renovations to the existing single story Graphics Building for the purpose of housing Campus Transportation Offices. Demolition work to remove the existing boiler and chiller was performed as a separate project. Renovation work was done in two phases, to permit continued use of the facility.

Architectural renovations included the addition of new interior partitions, new windows, new ceiling and ceiling grid, new canopy, and five new parking spaces.
