Over the weekend of August 4-5, workers removed trees and vegetation from the knoll in the center of the campus and the uphill construction site. Some wood from the trees will be reused as benches and art installations around campus. In a few short years, the space will be transformed into an open air plaza and a state-of-the-art academic hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t\u201cWe have been thoughtful about reducing the impact of the project,\u201d says Tony Guerrero, assistant vice chancellor for facilities services. \u201cFor example, the campus currently plants more than 3,000 trees per year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"\/sustainability\">Learn more<\/a> about sustainability practices at UW Bothell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\tThe popular flower-sculpted \u201cW\u201d will be removed, but it will be restored once construction is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\t\u201cThis is an exciting time of growth for the UW Bothell campus,\u201d says Chancellor Kenyon Chan. \u201cThis new building will enable us to help meet a critical need in the state of Washington by educating 1,000 additional students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.\u201d Construction of the building will also generate 1,500 construction-related jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\tPlanning for UWB 3 has also allowed the UW Bothell campus to position itself for its long-term future. Unlike the existing buildings, UWB 3 will have an east-west orientation, which future buildings will follow. Changing the building orientation allows engineers to use sunlight and shade to heat and cool the building. It also assists with ADA compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\tUW Bothell is experiencing unprecedented growth.
