Union renovation is nearing an end
By Jeff Suggs
Kansan staff writer
After almost a year's work and millions of dollars spent, the renovation on the third floor in the Kansas Union is nearly completed.
James Long, director of the Kansas and Burge Unions, said he hoped construction on the third floor would be completed by February, along with the renovation in the mechanical room on the first floor. Renovations on the first and third floors will cost approximately $6.5 million, he said.
Long said the renovation project was on budget and was running about 35 days behind schedule. He said the delay was caused by a sheetmetal workers' strike in the summer.
When the construction is completed, the third floor will house a kitchen, a bakery, the Hawk's Nest, the Prairie Room, and Union Square, which will be a cafeteria. All food services will be unified on one floor.
Long said that the food service operations would be brought up from the second floor to the third in stages, beginning sometime in late February and ending in early March. He said having the food services on third floor would make it easier for people to find a place to eat in the Union.
"in terms of the customer," Long
said, "he'll know where to get the
food."
The Prairie Room will operate like a restaurant, with waiters and waitresses, but the Hawk's Nest and the
cafeteria will operate in a fashion similar to a dining area in a shopping mall, with different compartments for different foods. Customers will be able to go to various compartments to select different types of foods and beverages.
Long said the Hawk's Nest would serve mostly fast-food type items, including ice cream, baked goods and deli items.
The food service area on the third floor will offer a variety of seating, from tables and chairs, to booths and private dining rooms. All facilities on the third floor will be accessible to the handicapped.
"It'll be much more efficient in terms of getting people through the cafeteria," Long said.
