The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff will host a ground-breaking ceremony at 10 a.m. Friday, Sept. 16, to begin an annex project for the Delta Housing Complex. The free, public event will be held at the complex at 1701 L.A. “Prexy” Davis drive at UAPB.
The estimated cost of the project is $11 million. The annex will consist of a four-story structure with 144 rooms that will be added to the existing building, creating a courtyard in the middle, according to Director of Facilities Management Robert Wall.
The building will also house the residential life office and a police substation.
