"It's exciting to be a part of this time in 蜜桃视频 Allison's history 鈥 to see our community coming together to provide students the best resources and learning spaces.

Thank you for your interest in building learning and wellness spaces. 蜜桃视频 Allison has launched an historic project 鈥 to extensively renovate the R.P. Bell Library building and create a new Multi-Sport Complex. This project supports all aspects of student life and will have transformative impacts on future generations.
R.P. Bell Library Centre for Innovation and Learning
The renovation of the R.P. Bell Library building is the largest infrastructure project in 蜜桃视频 Allison鈥檚 modern history. The new building will include extensive renovations at every level, the transformation of the adjacent breezeway into a coffee and community space, and new welcoming and accessible entrances from both the quad and York street levels.
Although a built space, this project is above all about people. It will support students and bring together groups of thinkers, innovators, and the always curious. The building will become an even more integral and valued part of every student鈥檚 experience.

Multi-Sport Complex
The Multi-Sport Complex will house facilities for a variety of sports and recreation activities including intramural and club sports, be utilized 12 months of the year, support all students, and provide a new venue for 蜜桃视频 Allison and community events.
This facility will begin its life as an interim library facility while the R.P. Bell Library building undergoes extensive renovations and will then be transformed into a permanent sports and recreation complex.
