Biomedical /Biological Sciences Research Bldg (BBSRB)
Project Description.
BBSRB is a state of the art facility for collaboration in research and graduate education in biological
chemistry, genetics, molecular and cellular biology, neuroscience, and related fields. This $73M project
is designed by A. M. Kinney and ZBA of Cincinnati and Venturi, Scott Brown of Philadelphia.
Project Status:
As of January 30, 2005 the BBSRB and the CUP/Infrastructure portion of the project achieved
beneficial occupancy. The Bridge/Cafe and site were scheduled for final inspection on February 28th;
however, this inspection did not take place due to construction delays. While the bridge is now open to
public use, finish work continues at a slow pace. The boiler will be fired in April making the CUP
operational. The landscaping has begun. The building dedication is planned for April 11, 2005. Fit up
for tenant occupancy on the lower floor continues, and move in is expected in late April and May.


Center for Pharmaceutical & Science Technolo2y (CPST Bld2.)
The CPST operation will be located in the small buildings zone of the Coldstream Research Park. Some
of the operation presently located on the 1 st floor of the College of Pharmacy building will be relocated
to the new operation in Coldstream. The project scope is $12 million, CE&IC from Princeton NJ
provided the bridging documents, and Messer Construction is the design/builder.
Project Status:
Structural steel is being erected, and the building slab has been poured. Final documents have been
received for the Manufacturing Core portion of the facility; the bid date is projected as May 2, 2005, with
work beginning on site June 30, 2005. In April, structural steel will continue with attachments being
permanently welded and wall panel framing beginning. Site work will continue, weather permitting,
with the gravel base being installed under entry roads and parking lot. Project completion is scheduled
for January 2006.


Construct Multi Purpose Room hi Nutter
Project Description:
This planned $4 million project will provide dining and meeting space along with kitchen facilities to
service Commonwealth Stadium suites, concession operators, athlete training table, and departmental
functions. The facility will host recruiting functions for all sports and include video and audio specialties
designed to impress recruits and their families. The building is planned as a 12,500 square foot addition
to the south end of the Nutter Field House. Ross-Tarrant is the design architect, teamed with HNTITB
from Kansas City, MO.
Project Status:
Deductive changes distributed in Post Bid Addendum #3 resulted in approximately $300,000 in savings
from the initial bid. The resulting project scope is approximately $5.9 million. UKAA will evaluate the
cost and present a proposal to the UKAA Board in April. If the project is to move forward, UKAA will
seek UK Board of Trustee approval to request an increase in the KY Legislative authorization at the
May 17, 2005 Oversight Committee meeting.
