Here's some recent construction pics I took while walking around campus one day (I don't have the new Hyatt downtown yet because I haven't gone downtown since winter started). Even though it's winter there's still plenty of construction going on in town!
Lets start with the new ECE building on campus (on Wright street just south of University)
Moving west on White street we see some new apartments (606 White Street)
Moving farther west and south we come to Green and Second, the former site of White Horse which has been demolished (White horse still lives on, in a new location just off sixth and John) to make way for a five-story apartment building. They had just demolished it when I took these shots...
There is a big hole in the ground where the "mall" used to be on Green and Fourth, but it's been there for months and nothing has been built yet.
There's a pretty big apartment building getting built at 75 Armory street just off campus:
Finally, UIUC is building some new dorms to replace the ones currently at Ikenberry Commons. Here's the latest one, right across the street from the ARC:
And just for fun, here's the Alma Mater base with no Alma Mater present! They're restoring it and it should be back in time for graduation this summer.
