Mark Jefferson proposal photo

THIS IS OUR PROPOSAL: (above, from left) Kevin Boyer, a project designer and associate principal with the architectural engineering firm, Holabird & Root, shows a model of their vision for the $100 million Mark Jefferson Science Complex during a campus presentation Oct. 26 in 201 Welch. James Baird, a design principal for the Chicago firm, hosted the presentation. Lord, Aeck, Sargent; and Harley Ellis Deveraux are the other firms competing for the project that also made presentations that day. The Mark Jefferson Architectural Engineering Advisory Committee will make the final choice of an architectural engineering firm for the project, said Scott Storrar, manager, facilities planning and construction, EMU Physical Plant. Construction is expected to be complete sometime in 2011, he said.
