Architecture and Construction Firms Selected for OSU’s Agronomy Research Station Updates |
The Oklahoma State University/A&M Board of Regents has selected architectural and construction management firms to draft construction plans for crucial infrastructure updates at the OSU Agronomy Research Station in Stillwater.
The board approved Dewberry Architects and Willowbrook as the construction manager at risk during the April 26 board meeting.
The architectural and construction management firms will assist with designing and constructing new greenhouses and a headhouse at the OSU agronomy farm. This initial phase is expected to cost $10 million.
“We are pleased this much-anticipated project is moving forward with the design phase,” said Randy Raper, OSU Agriculture assistant vice president of facilities. “The next steps are to work with the selected firms to develop designs and renderings of the new buildings. Updates to the facility will allow OSU Agriculture to continue to be a leader in wheat research and development.”
