Update on SSB Tower Deconstruction

transform logo

Dear University Community,

As part of our continued commitment to the Transform UMSL initiative, we are making great strides in redefining our campus to better serve students for generations to come. For those new to the Triton family, this initiative represents a coordinated, five-year campus transformation plan, supported by more than $110 million in public and private investments. These efforts aim to reimagine our campus footprint to foster growth, innovation and student success.

One of the most visible parts of this transformation is the upcoming Social Science and Business Building (SSB) Modernization and Expansion project. To make way for this exciting new chapter, we will be deconstructing the SSB Tower. In recent months, crews have been working digiligently to prepare the site, clearing the interior of the tower so that the deconstruction process can begin smoothly over the next few months.

While the North Quad remains closed to facilitate this work, we want to assure you that this temporary disruption is a symbol of the progress we are making. These efforts will help shape a more vibrant and modern campus that will serve the needs of future students, faculty and staff. Follow our progress on the live feed.

Limited Access to the Quad during SSB Tower Deconstruction:

The North Campus Quad is closed to pedestrian traffic with a perimeter fence installed to protect our campus community from construction activities. Please respect all construction fencing and signage for your safety as you travel around the North Quad. Wayfinding signage is located around this area, but we recommend that students, faculty, staff and visitors park in the MSC parking garages during construction.
