UNR in unprecedented building boom

Twelve major projects with a combined cost of about $52 million are underway at the University of Nevada, Reno.

The projects include a $7.5 million student services building, a $17 million residence hall and parking facility and an $11 million addition to the medical school.

But university officials are already looking to the future.

Topping their wish list is a new main library, which carries an estimated price tag upwards of $60 million, a university official said.
