This unprecedented growth is the culmination of what we call Morgan Momentum. As we continue on this trajectory of sustained growth, we aspire to cement Morgan’s position in the higher echelon of Carnegieclassified universities by attaining R1 (“very high research”) classification, which will not only raise our profile within the

University Projects Northwood Commons

OPENING FALL 2022 – The newly developed Northwood Commons represents a $50-million revitalization of the former Northwood Plaza Shopping Center, adjacent to Morgan’s West Campus — home of the Morgan Business Center and the Martin D. Jenkins Hall Behavioral and Social Sciences Center (BSSC). The recently renovated, 100,000-square-foot retail, restaurant and services destination features a Lidl supermarket; a Fulton Bank; IHOP; Chipotle Mexican Grill; Tropical Smoothie Café; Wingstop; and new facilities for the Morgan State University Barnes & Noble Bookstore (with a Starbucks café) and the MSU Police and Public Safety Department.

MSU Police and Public Safety Building

OPENING FALL 2022 – The new Public Safety Building will be home to Morgan’s Public Safety Department and MSU Police. Comprising three stories and approximately 21,000 square feet, the modern facility will sit on approximately 0.28 acres and will be situated on the southeast corner of Northwood Commons. Amenities in the state-of-art structure include a 24-hour audio-video communications command center and campus-wide digital surveillance center, in addition to classrooms for academic instruction. The new Public Safety facility will be fully operational by fall 2022.

Student Housing and Residential Facilities Thurgood Marshall Residence Hall (Tower 1)

OPENING FALL 2022 – In collaboration with the Maryland Economic Development Corporation (MEDCO), the University will introduce a modern, apartment-style residence facility located on Morgan’s South Campus, adjacent to the former Thurgood Marshall Apartment Complex to the campus in the fall of 2022. Meeting the University’s need for increased student residential housing, the new Thurgood Marshall Residence Hall will provide 670 beds and an expansive dining facility to accommodate Morgan’s growing new and returning student population.

Thurgood Marshall Residential Complex (Tower 2)

Meeting the demand of both existing and forecast enrollment increases, Morgan will be constructing three new residential facilities on campus by the fall of 2026. To accompany the newly built Thurgood Marshall Residence Hall (Tower 1), Morgan plans to erect a complementary residential tower comprising an additional 450 units to create a new Thurgood Marshall Residential Complex.

University Projects

(continued)

New Health and Human Services Building

The groundbreaking ceremony for the new health and human services building took place in Fall 2021. The new building will provide state-of-the-art classroom, lab, demonstration, office and community spaces for the School of Community Health and Policy, including Public Health, Pre-Professional Physical Therapy, Nutritional Sciences and the Prevention Sciences Research Center; the School of Social Work; the Medical Technology program; the Department of Family and Consumer Sciences; and the University Counseling Center. The building’s location at the northeast corner of Argonne Drive and Hillen Road, across from the recently developed West Campus, will form the southern gateway to our campus. The facility will be located on the former site of Turner’s Armory, which was recently demolished in 2020. Construction is expected to be completed in 2024.

Five-Year Projects

Included in the governor’s five-year Capital Improvement Program for Morgan is funding for a new science complex, which will be located at the corner of E. Cold Spring Lane and Stadium Way. The new facility will provide state-of-theart classrooms, teaching labs and research space, which will help further our doctoral research mission. The Science Building will be completed in 2027. As new buildings and facilities are coming online, the University will also address some of its existing buildings. The Washington Service Center (former home of MSU’s Office of Police and Public Safety) is scheduled for demolition in 2023, and the location is slated to be the site of the new science complex. The Carter-Grant-Wilson Building is scheduled for renovations in 2026–27.

Long-Term Projects (Five-plus years) Legacy Student Housing Renovation To meet the demand of both existing and forecast enrollment increases, Morgan will construct three new residential facilities on campus by the fall of 2026 and will update all remaining legacy housing facilities over the next eight years. The first of the completed student housing projects will be the new Thurgood Marshall Residential Complex, which will begin housing students this fall. The plan also calls for the demolition of two legacy facilities: O’Connell Hall and the Thurgood Marshall Apartments. MSU Campus Expansion: Lake Clifton Redevelopment Central to Morgan’s status as an anchor institution with plans to physically grow the University’s footprint, Morgan has acquired the site of the former Lake Clifton High School (approximately 58.9 acres) from the City of Baltimore. Nearly doubling the University’s size, the parcel of land, located less than 1.5 miles from campus, will be significant in addressing Morgan’s ability to expand beyond its current campus radius. The 20-year master plan and vision for the property includes the development of a multipurpose convocation center, a research/innovation facility, graduate/family student housing, other educational facilities, and retail and mixed-use properties.
