Texas Woman’s University Expands/Renovates Hubbard Hall

  • 06/06/19

DENTON, TX – McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., recently celebrated an important milestone at the Texas Woman’s University (TWU) Hubbard Hall project in Denton, TX—the topping out of what will be the Student Union at Hubbard Hall. 

TWU Hubbard Hall

Hubbard Hall is home to the Student Government Association Chamber. The organization will have new quarters. The three-story hall is over 45 years old and lacks many of the amenities today’s students have come to expect. Hubbard Hall is one of six major construction projects in the works on campus.

Construction began in early 2018 on the 100,754 square feet of renovations and 23,920 square feet of additions. Work on the building has been phased and portions have remained occupied during construction. The overall project is expected to be completed later this year.

  • Designing for Every Mind

    Learning environments have the power to shape not just what students know, but who they become. When a school is designed with genuine empathy—for the full range of ways students think, sense, and engage with the world—it becomes more than a building. It becomes a catalyst for growth, confidence, and belonging. That is the animating idea behind neurodiverse design, and it is one that is transforming how more architects and designers are thinking about school design.

    Classroom design decisions can have outsized effects on instructional time and safety at schools juggling mismatched infrastructure, strict budgets, and crowded schedules — particularly in the arts.
