    Reimaging Anderson Hall to Meet Modern Academic Needs

    Originally built in 1938, Anderson Hall stands as West Chester University’s largest and most significant classroom facility. Recognizing its central role, Blackney Hayes partnered with the University to reimagine its interiors, creating state-of-the-art classrooms, labs, faculty offices, and collaborative spaces. This extensive renovation brought the building up to modern standards while accommodating the needs of a growing student population.

  • Modernizing for Growth and Innovation

    Enhanced Spaces with Safety and Technology Upgrades

    This renovation, the most substantial in Anderson Hall’s history, delivered a complete transformation. Spaces were reconfigured for efficiency, safety systems were upgraded, and cutting-edge audio/visual technology was installed to support connectivity and collaboration. A luminous ceiling design adjacent to the student lounge and offices was introduced, mimicking the natural shifts in daylight throughout the day, seamlessly blending innovation with an enhanced campus experience.
