Details The project is anticipated to begin September 2026, with a total estimated value of approximately $15 million. The UConn Storrs campus continues to expand in accordance with its Master Plan, and the electrical demand is increasing to a point where both imported, and campus-based production of electrical power needs to be increased to meet forecasted demand. The new 38E connection to the Eversource 900 line will facilitate meeting the forecasted demand.

Details DPR Construction (DPR) is the awarded Construction Manager for the Gampel Pavilion Renovations project. The University of Connecticut (UConn) is undertaking a focused renovation to Gampel Pavilion on the Storrs campus. Gampel Pavilion is an approximately 171,000 square feet, 10,299- seat multipurpose dome that was originally constructed beginning in 1988 and opened in January 1990. Gampel Pavilion consists of four floor levels that include the court/floor level (Activity Level), entrance / street level (Concourse Level), mechanical level (Fan Room Level) and upper concourse (Upper Level). Gampel Pavilion is the largest on-campus venue for college basketball in the New England area. The goal of this project’s renovation is to modernize and create maximum efficiencies of the existing spaces in Gampel Pavilion while also further increasing new revenue generating areas and opportunities that support the facility’s use.
