A signature project in Temple University’s 20/20 Masterplan, Mitchell & Hilarie Morgan Hall expanded on-campus housing while advancing the University’s vision for a more pedestrian-focused, community-oriented campus.
LF Driscoll provided construction management services for the new 27-story and 10-story student residences that host an underground parking garage, integrated retail, and dining facilities. During preconstruction, our team identified significant cost savings through value engineering, including alternative structural and façade systems, while a fast-track strategy and early procurement supported the project’s firm academic-year deadline. When curtainwall procurement challenges threatened the schedule, our team coordinated directly with vendors, divided the work across eight subcontracts, and resequenced construction to maintain progress and deliver the project on time.
