UW–Madison breaks ground on long-anticipated engineering center

An artist's rendering of the facade of the new College of Engineering building shows a mid-rise elevation with a reflection pond in the foreground.

The 395,000-square-foot Phillip A. Levy Engineering Center — named by brothers and UW–Madison alumni Marvin and Jeffrey Levy in memory of their elder brother and alumnus, Phil — will occupy a prominent 2.5-acre site in the heart of the engineering campus.
