Russell House, Scheffres said.
Dining Services plans to expand
seating in the Grand Marketplace
and Gamecock Park next summer.
“We couldn’t do everything
right away,” he said. “The expan
sion of the Grand Marketplace and
Gamecock Park are much more
significant renovations and must
be done when everyone isn’t here.”
The plans call for the building
to be extended into part of the out
door seating behind the Russell
House in order to create more in
door space for the dining facilities’
seating. Scheffres said extending
the building will create “up-to-date
formats and flows” for the Russell
House’s daily rush of students and
visitors.
The opening of Pandini’s will
come with the addition of approx
imately 50 seats outside the
Russell House near the entrance
to the bookstore.
While the Russell House gets a
new look, Blossom Street’s biggest
construction project—the Strom
Thurmond Fitness and Wellness
Center — appears, externally, to
be ready for use. But construction
supervisors haven’t given the ap
proval to set an opening date.
Members of the Boudroux
Group, the facility’s contractor,
will meet with members of USC’s
Construction Services to discuss
the building’s substantial comple
tion date — the date when the site
officially meets all safety standards
and is suitable for public use.
“The project has gone well really;
it’s just a complicated project,” said
Construction Services’ project man
ager David Northam. “The last five
percent on any construction is the
toughest to get completed,” he said.
Northam added that the con
struction was delayed slightly by
last fall’s bad weather, but a big
ger delay was the university’s in
creasing scope of work being done
inside. An example would be the
altered plans for increased dining
facilities and retail space the uni
versity requested last year.
“There’s a lot of things you
don’t see in operations of systems
that have to be substantially com
plete before we declare the build
ing formally available for the
user’s use,” Northam said.
