West Woods Phase 2
As part of Phase II of the Housing & Dining Comprehensive Facilities Plan, the Randolph Complex will be replaced with a new residential development. This new development includes approximately 450 beds in a mix of traditional and semi-suite units.
In support of this project, enabling work was required. This scope included the demolition of the Randolph Complex (item 9 on the FY25 Capital Plan, entitled "Demolish: Randolph Complex") and the relocation of utilities necessitated by the demolition of Randolph.

The West Woods Phase 2 site plan shows how the three-building ensemble defines the promenade to the north and maintains the existing copes of trees within the existing area
The West 2 development shown from the air highlights how the buildings combine with West 1 to form a cohesive residential district
The view from the West Woods Commons Dining Hall back into the West 2 site shows a new pedestrian bridge connecting the two parts of the residential neighborhood
Approaching the site along Ukrop Way, the existing and preserved tree canopy is highlighted
From the tennis courts across Ukrop Way, West 2 is seen taking architectural cues from the Sunken Garden District, while blending with more contemporary buildings in the western part of campus
The materiality and proportions of West 2 are shown from the courtyard, where existing mature trees provide a canopy of shade
