A $33 million building permit was issued this past week for the Basketball Training and Player Development Facility expansion and renovation at Coleman Coliseum. The total cost of the project will be approximately $59 million, and this particular permit is for the expansion and renovation of the facility.

The project will consist of a new 48,883 GSF basketball training facility expansion in the southeast corner of Coleman Coliseum and 19,059 GSF renovation of the existing facility.

The project will include a new practice facility and weight room for the men’s basketball team, and the women’s basketball team will move into the current men’s practice facility and weight room, following finish and graphics upgrades.

The expansion will house player development areas for both teams, including a lobby, locker rooms, lounges, film rooms, equipment room and sports medicine spaces.

Harrison Construction Co. is listed as the lead contractor.
