West Hall Exterior Restoration

This multi-phase exterior restoration project that commenced in 2004 and is expected to be completed by the spring of 2009 will restore RPI’s West Hall on 8th Street to its elegant Empire-style appearance. Pedestrians ascending the hill from the informal Fulton Street footpath will continue to be diverted around the site until work is completed.

Congress & Ferry Corridor

Rensselaer is pleased to be collaborating with the City, the County and the Troy Housing Authority to advance the vision for development of the Congress & Ferry Streets corridor.
