Auburn University Facilities Management

Facilities' Landscape Services recently pruned and trimmed the Samford Park descendants of the original Toomer's Corner oaks.

The descendants were planted in Samford Park in 2016 as 15-foot oak trees, grown from acorns collected from the original oaks in 2002.

The now 24-year-old trees are under the purview of University Arborist Alex Hedgepath, arborist and field supervisor Dalton Sconyers, and arbor specialists Andy Mora and Wesley Farrow. Thank you, gentlemen!

STEM + Ag and New University Student Housing are almost finished, and Facilities Management is moving through 2026 with even more projects to come. Let's see what else is happening in the June Construction Update!

The Melton Student Center Patio Renovation project completely transformed more than 21,000 square feet of the outside area of the center for the first time since it was constructed in 2008.

This newly renovated space offers outdoor study areas, room for small events and comfortable lounge spaces, providing plenty of new areas for both academic and social activities and creating a new central area for students to come together on campus.

So let's go check out what's new at AU!

Cambridge Hall has been fully demolished as the East Thach Residence Hall nears construction! Stretching January through March, we whittled the demolition down to 1,392 images, all located right here. Enjoy!

In honor of Women in Construction Week, members of Planning, Design and Construction took a tour of the soon-to-be-completed New University Student Housing project to see how it's coming along and to learn about all its coming amenities from project manager Kelly O'Neal-Young!

Furniture deliveries have begun for the STEM + Agricultural Sciences Complex! Deliveries will continue through April 29 as we get ready for its full opening this year!
