Imagine
populate the edges of the new space with innovative technology such as 3D printers, a laser cutter, a CDC router, and interactive displays, as well as aesthetic technology to enhance student wellness.
The Renovation Project will also address the facade of the Beekley Building, known familiarly as “the front door of Tatnall.” We envision a beautifully designed exterior that will significantly improve aesthetics, while also incorporating green technology, environmental stewardship via stormwater management, and a new green community space to be used as an additional outdoor classroom. The design not only complements our ambitions for the interior, but will dovetail with Tatnall’s emerging reputation as a “best-in-class” institution for environmental studies.

The estimated cost of the project is $977,000. The interior will cost an estimated $477,000, while the exterior will cost an estimated $500,000. We plan to begin the renovation on June 1, 2023, with an estimated completion date of September 1, 2023. Tatnall currently has over $440,000 in-hand from generous donors and foundations, with $500,000 worth of grant requests under review. The Development Team is excited to complete the fundraising requirements before June 1, so we can hit the ground running this summer with this incredible renovation!
