Among the changes made to the structure was an expansion of one of its key locations. The Meeting Place, a gathering place for students, was expanded from 400 to almost 1,000 seats, alongside substantial aesthetic modifications.

 

A newly revamped main entrance to the building, which aimed to improve accessibility included an enclosed vestibule and exterior canopy. Renovation work included a complete revamp of the existing washroom spaces, replacement of the mechanical Air Handling Units.
