Description

This multi-phased, occupied replacement and modification project includes 100,000 sf of new exhibit hall space, demolition of the Jefferson Street Bridge, new University of Kentucky Hospitality Clubs, new upper-level seating, larger bathrooms and additional meeting spaces and parking structures.

Features

  • Rupp Arena is to remain open for all games and events throughout the duration of construction.
  • Replacement of the existing central utility plant that services Rupp Arena, Hyatt Regency Hotel and Lexington Convention Center must remain fully functional throughout all phases of replacement.
  • Our proactive on-site leadership is coordinating construction activities to the minute to ensure no disruption to plant operations. This includes low-impact demolition work in the evening.
