Phase II: May - November 2012

Transforming the Grotto and Kennedy Ellipse

During the second phase, the Grotto will be moved to the area between St. Rita and Austin Halls. The new Grotto will resemble a small amphitheater designed to hold approximately 20 to 30 people. Phase II will also feature the transformation of the Kennedy Ellipse—the area between Kennedy, Corr and Dougherty Halls and the Connelly Center— into an open and attractive gathering place. Work also will be done to improve the Sullivan-Sheehan Quad.
