Grove City College

“Our board expanded the scope of construction work taking place on campus and in February we were left wondering how permitting would be complete for a mid-May start. We called on Gateway to get the job done for us.  We had the necessary permits in hand with a week and a half to spare.  We appreciate Gateway’s response and look forward to working with them again.”

- Thomas Gregg, Vice President of Operations, Grove City College

Grove City College, a Christian liberal arts college founded in 1876, is constructing two new buildings on its campus that is located in Grove City Borough, Mercer County, Pennsylvania. It is.  The proposed project includes the construction of a new Christian Activities Building (Rathburn Hall) and a Science, Engineering and Mathematics Building, along with associated access drive alterations and utility installations.  The project will encompass 8.4 acres, required for construction. It will transform the campus and provide enhanced opportunities for students, faculty and administration. The significant construction projects are key components of Grove City Matters: A Campaign to Advance Grove City College, which at $90 million is the largest capital campaign in the college’s history.

Both building projects will be conducted concurrently, but will be considered separate projects, therefore the plans were developed for use by multiple contractors. Gateway was responsible for preparing a wetland & stream evaluation for the site and preparing an Erosion & Sedimentation Control Plan.  An N.P.D.E.S. permit was also obtained by the end of the spring college semester, so that major earth moving activities could be completed by the time the fall semester started. 

The addition of the $6.8-million Christian Activities Building will reflect the centrality of spiritual life to the student campus experience. Situated behind Harbison Chapel, the building will fulfill the demand for a central facility to house administrative offices, flexible training spaces and an appropriate atmosphere for all student religious activities.  The completion of the 16,500-square foot building, which is projected to take 12 to 16 months, will create expanded opportunities for the college, including summer conferences, church retreats, programs for the enhancement of church members and special guests and speakers for Chapel and ministry programs.

The $37.2-million Science, Engineering and Mathematics Building is designed to support new modes of teaching, particularly flexible laboratories and small-group interactions. It will ensure that the college continues to prepare students for future careers in an increasingly competitive workforce.   With an additional 63,000 square feet of teaching and research space, the building will allow the college to keep pace with increasingly sophisticated technologies and didactics.  The goal is also to attract talented students, as well as a world-class faculty with a passion for teaching and interdisciplinary research. Construction and outfitting of the building is expected to take 24 to 30 months.
