The East Hall design includes glazed windows and heavy timber wood finishes.

Based on feedback from students and other community members, Michigan Tech is breaking ground on its newest hall this fall as part of our Campus Master Plan. Located at the east entrance to campus, East Hall will increase and enhance the variety of dynamic living experiences on campus, giving on-campus student residents more options.

With a focus on modern and sustainable features, the design and architecture of the residence hall features a vibrant and eco-friendly living space. The integration of technology will further enhance the overall experience, providing state-of-the-art amenities and facilities. The project, aligned with Michigan Tech's focus on responsible environmental design is on track for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification.

East Hall will increase student housing, ensuring that 516 more Huskies can pursue their education within this thriving community. East Hall aims to provide a comfortable and enriching living environment that brings about economic and social benefits for the greater community, fostering a sense of unity and progress.
