"Taylor is proud to team-up with the State University Construction Fund on another exciting and beneficial project, for both the Oswego community and the University as a whole," said Taylor president, Karl Schuler. "The targeted LEED Gold certification for this project further instills our commitment to promote environmentally responsible, healthy, and profitable places to live, work, and learn."
The new building will use energy efficient construction to obtain the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification rating of Gold from the U.S. Green Building Council. The project also calls for building a new astronomical observatory next to the main building, rebuilding a pavilion and maintenance garage, and adding new signs to Rice Creek's 400 acres of trails.
Rice Creek Field Station is owned and operated by Oswego State University, which primarily serves as a study and research site for students in various sciences, such as ecology and biology. The large building will provide faculty with more room for classes and research with the addition of an artifacts room, full research lab, classrooms, lecture space, and library.
