Georgia Tech’s most recognizable landmark will undergo a $7.5 million renovation beginning in a few weeks. 

Tech Tower

The Lettie Pate Whitehead Evans Administration Building, widely known as Tech Tower and home to the College of Engineering Dean’s Office, will get a major upgrade of its plumbing, electrical, and heating and cooling systems, as well as the addition of a second interior fire exit stairwell and a new elevator. The building is being vacated in October, with its occupants temporarily relocating to other buildings on campus. The College of Engineering Dean’s Office has moved to the first floor of the Joseph M. Pettit Building and will remain there until the renovation is completed in late 2016. 

The CoE Dean’s Office is maintaining the same phone numbers, but the mailing address has changed. The new mailing address is 791 Atlantic Drive NW, Atlanta, GA 30332-0360.
