Projects beginning on UK’s south campus
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Aug. 19, 2024) — What was previously the Kirwan-Blanding Complex is now fenced off as construction of the University of Kentucky’s new residence hall begins. Access through the site will not be available. Signs in the area will direct pedestrians to alternate routes.
This is in addition to the fencing that was previously placed along the perimeter of the South Lawn.
UK Housing will continue to update campus as information becomes available. For questions, contact UK Campus Housing at ukhousing@uky.edu.
As the state’s flagship, land-grant institution, the University of Kentucky exists to advance the Commonwealth. We do that by preparing the next generation of leaders — placing students at the heart of everything we do — and transforming the lives of Kentuckians through education, research and creative work, service and health care. We pride ourselves on being a catalyst for breakthroughs and a force for healing, a place where ingenuity unfolds. It's all made possible by our people — visionaries, disruptors and pioneers — who make up 200 academic programs, a $476.5 million research and development enterprise and a world-class medical center, all on one campus.
