Sonoma State Breaks Ground On Stevenson Hall Renovation Project

ROHNERT PARK, CA — Sonoma State University has broken ground on the Stevenson Hall Project after more than 10 years of planning, university officials announced Thursday.

As the first building constructed when the campus opened in 1966, Stevenson Hall has played a vital role in the university's history. The renovation project was designed to refresh the building into a 21st century academic learning environment with educational and meeting spaces.

Sonoma State invites the community to view its Virtual Groundbreaking which is a video playlist comprised of recorded messages, photos, and appreciation for everyone who helped to make the project a reality and success.

The renovated Stevenson Hall will house the Schools of Business and Economics, Education and Social Sciences, and will feature state-of-the-art classroom and lecture spaces. The Stevenson Hall renovation is designed to a LEED Gold sustainability standard, taking advantage of natural sunlight throughout, using green materials and enhancing energy efficiency.

"We look forward to reopening its doors in Fall 2022, so it may continue to positively serve our campus community," the university said.

The community is encouraged to follow the metamorphosis of the building over the next year by visiting the Stevenson Hall Renovation Project website.
