The project will construct a four level 98,250 ASF/ 120,000 GSF new facility and renovate 8,000 GSF in the existing Kohl Center located at 601 West Dayton Street for a women’s/men’s hockey practice facility and women’s hockey performance facility. The new construction will include a 90’ x 200’ ice sheet, spectator seating for approximately 4,000, team locker rooms for UW, visitor locker rooms, concessions, public toilets, pre-function/circulation space, and women’s hockey coaches’ offices. It also includes a support services location for our men’s and women’s swimming programs. The main feature of this space would include locker and team room functions to support both of these teams.
