University of Denver Places 60,000 lb Dome

The new state-of-the-art University of Denver’s Daniel Felix Ritchie School of Engineering & Computer Science and the Knoebel Institute for Healthy Aging marked a very important milestone on Friday, December 18, 2015 when a 60,000-pound dome was placed on top of the new 110,000 square foot building. DU’s new building will expand the interdisciplinary STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) program.

Denver-based, Anderson Mason Dale Architects is the architect for the project which is being constructed by Greenwood Village-based, GH Phipps Construction Companies.
