About Boston University Warren Towers Renovation
700 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA
The Trustees of Boston University propose to renovate 380,200 square feet of Warren Towers, the three-tower student residence that is home to approximately 1,800 undergraduate students at 700 Commonwealth Avenue on the Boston University Charles River Campus. The project will include repairs to the building’s envelope, reconfiguration of bathroom cores, accessibility improvements, modernization of elevators and escalators, and new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (“MEP”) systems.
The existing dorm room configuration will also remain largely unchanged; however, dorm rooms will be modernized and there will be a nine-bed increase to the overall student bed count.
