One Step Closer
at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies

AYSPS is closer to moving to its new 8-story building on the southwest corner of Peachtree and Marietta streets, as evidenced by the Andrew Young School sign installed on the building in October by Architectural Image Manufacturing, an Atlanta-based architectural sign company.

Above: In October, the school’s name was installed on its future home.

When renovated, the building will provide office space and a variety of meeting rooms and computer labs. The vault floor and seventh floor, hubs of student activity, will include the Office of Academic Assistance, the Student Cyber Lounge, the Open Access Student Lab and the Research Methods and Econometrics Lab. The Smart Seminar Room will provide high-tech space for faculty and training activities.

The project was awarded in November to Winter Construction Company. Project architect is Smallwood, Reynolds, Stewart, Stewart and Associates. As of press time, the interior of the new space had been gutted, asbestos removal completed and construction was underway.
