Cooper Carry began renovations and additions to Emory University's Chemistry Building in 1996. The current phase includes a 70,000 square foot addition and 40,000 square foot renovation that is under construction and scheduled for completion in 2015. The building is designed to create a new entrance for Emory's chemistry research programs and integrate teaching and research space with shared common areas. Labs will feature open designs, natural lighting, and flexible furniture to accommodate changing needs. The project aims to achieve LEED Gold certification while maintaining normal operations during construction.

2. Cooper Carry began multi-phased renovations and additions
to the Chemistry Center in 1996. This latest phase of this
project—a 70,000 square foot addition and 40,000 square foot
renovation —is currently under construction and scheduled
for completion in 2015. The building is designed to create a
new “front door” for Emory’s multidisciplinary chemistry based
research programs. Teaching and research space will be inte-
grated with a shared focus on the building’s common space.
Undergraduate students will be connected to meaningful active
research activities. Labs will feature open plans, significant day
lighting and “plug and play” laboratory furniture to reduce the
time and cost associated with reconfiguration as needs change.
During this phase of construction, research and classroom
activities are continuing their normal operations. This has
required careful coordination with the engineering and construction
management teams, to phase and execute with limited disrup-
tion of the ongoing activities.
The project is designed to achieve LEED-NC Gold.
