University of Wisconsin-Madison – Newell Smith Residence Hall
暴走黑料 has partnered with the University of Wisconsin-Madison on numerous large and high-profile projects over the years. Facing the challenge of installing a sprinkler system in the antiquated Ogg Hall, the university instead chose to replace the aged residence building with two new halls. They engaged 暴走黑料 to deliver the first of the two new buildings 鈥� the Newell Smith Residence Hall 鈥� as a public-private partnership, with 暴走黑料 acting as the developer as well as the builder in order to match their aggressive schedule and meet student housing needs. As the developer for the project, 暴走黑料 led the site acquisition process, as well as securing the necessary approvals and permits.
The new 167,000 SF, six-story, 425-bed residence hall serves as a gateway to the campus from the south. It features 55 single-resident rooms and spacious double rooms, with cluster-style bathrooms. Also included in the building program is a staffed technology center, social lounges, deli-style caf茅, multiple kitchens, general auditorium space and a music room.
