The alumni center will be located on the SDSU campus between the new $20 million athletic center and new $18 million sports deck/parking structure at Montezuma and 55th Street in the college area of San Diego. The SDSU Alumni Association is the developer of the project, under design by Tucker Sadler Noble Castro Architects.

Steve Nelson, development manager with Midwest General, Inc., a construction management and general contracting firm, is providing project oversight. Construction is scheduled to begin in October and take about a year.

The alumni center includes an 800-sf meeting room and a 4,100-sf ballroom. A 700-sf lobby area will be located in front of the ballroom. The ballroom and meeting rooms will have direct outdoor access to the courtyard facing "Aztec Walk," which connects the entire SDSU campus.

The main entry of the two-story building will be accessed through the 3,000-sf rotunda, which will be used to host events and will provide for a tent covering that will be used for larger gatherings. A monumental staircase will radiate from the center of the entry and will provide access from the two-story lobby to a 6,000-sf office space located on the second floor.

Tucker Sadler Noble Castro Architects is providing complete architectural services, including planning, programming, architectural and schematic design, construction documents and construction administration.
