As a new academic year has started at UND, so has the official building of the new chapter house at 421 Princeton Street.
During the month of August, the lot was cleared of debris and scraped. Following that, the driveway was excavated, and gravel was placed. During the month of September, the digging of the basement will occur, followed by the foundation being poured. The construction team is in the process of developing a full construction timeline.
The new chapter house will be a 16,000 square foot two story structure with a lower level. The structure will be a combination of interior wood, and steel frame construction with brick on the exterior.
In addition, the chapter house will be fully sprinklered with a modern kitchen, laundry, and elevator to allow for full accessibility for wheelchair users. The sleeping rooms will consist of a combination of single and double rooms.
Educational spaces include multiple study rooms, a library and a media production room. The lower level will have in-floor heating which will be perfect for the North Dakota winters! Furthermore, the wheelchair ramp leading to the entrance on the north side of the house will be heated during the winter to melt snow and ice.
The Men of Delta Upsilon, North Dakota Chapter, welcome all alumni and guests to visit and tour the grounds whenever you are in Grand Forks.
