Ceddia Union Building at Shippensburg University

To meet the demands of a growing student population, Shippensburg University renovated and expanded its Ceddia Union Building, a three-story structure that previously housed an undersized snack bar, convenience store and dining operation.  The expanded facility, known as the CUB, is the heart of campus and student life, serving the University Union and Student Activities Center.

STV provided construction management services for the multi-phased project through an open-ended contract with the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education. The project entailed the renovation of the Ceddia Building and the construction of a 58,204-square-foot addition and an 8,500-square-foot addition. The Ceddia Building features an expanded kitchen and dining area. The larger addition houses a two-story multipurpose room, 400-seat amphitheater, media center, food court, dining hall, lounges, a bookstore and other spaces. Phased construction allowed the university to maintain partial use of the Ceddia Union Building so students and community members could still access the facility.
