FIELD TOUR A Look into ModernSpace at San Diego State University A behind the scene experience of the construction of the first ever LEED Platinum Student Union in the nation. The students of SDSU voted in 2010 to construct a new student union, the ModernSpace. Construction began in June 2011 and is anticipated to be completed in fall 2013. The tour will begin at the San Diego State University Alumni Center with short presentations about ModernSpace, the new student union under construction. The engineer and contractor will speak about the stormwater design elements including the green roof, permeable pavement and stormwater harvesting. A student representative will also speak about the student body’s involvement with this project and discuss what the LEED Platinum Certification means to SDSU students. The tour will then head over to the ModernSpace site to see the ongoing construction of the building. This project is scheduled to be completed in Fall 2013. |
