LIST: Mizzou to tear down 8 buildings, move museums The changes will save Missouri an estimated $2.5 million in annual operating costs and more than $93.7 million in repair and maintenance work, the university said Author: Associated Press Updated: 11:04 AM CST March 5, 2021 COLUMBIA, Mo. — The University of Missouri will demolish eight buildings and move two museums back to the main campus as part of a plan to reduce space the school uses and to save money, officials announced Thursday. University spokesman Christian Basi said the moves are the beginning of the university's Space Reduction and Strategic Relocation Plan, which has been discussed for years.
Set to be demolished are Parker Hall, Noyes Hall, Read Hall, Loeb Hall, London Hall, Neff Annex, the Columbia Professional Building and the Old Student Health Building. Mizzou North, on Business Loop 70, will be vacated. A buyer is being sought. "Through this plan, we are eliminating space costs that allow more funds to be reinvested back into our research and educational missions," said Gary Ward, vice chancellor for operations, in a news release. The Mizzou North sale will eliminate the largest amount of deferred maintenance among the projects, nearly $55 million. The building demolitions come after the opening of some new ones, including the 47,000-square-foot, $24 million Jeanne and Rex Sinquefield Music Center a year ago. There also is the new Center for Missouri Studies and State Historical Society of Missouri.
Eight buildings on the University of Missouri campus will be demolished as part of the school’s effort to reduce maintenance costs and use space more efficiently, the university announced Thursday. Set for eventual demolition are the Columbia Professional Building, Loeb Hall, London Hall, Neff Annex, Noyes Hall, the Old Student Health Building, Parker Hall and Read Hall. MU is seeking a buyer for a ninth building, Mizzou North. By removing 435,000 square feet of space, MU will save more than $2.5 million in annual operating costs and remove $93.7 million from its tally of deferred maintenance work. There is currently $868 million worth of maintenance needed across campus, a university spokesperson said.
