Monroe Roadways was recently awarded the contract for all related site work, utilities and paving for new construction of the Upper Quad Residence Hall, located adjacent to Keogh and Kearney Hall, on the St. John Fisher College campus in the Town of Pittsford, NY. Work is currently underway, with completion expected by August of 2019.

“We are proud to collaborate on yet another substantial project with St. John Fisher College, and continue our growing relationship,” said Monroe Roadways President, Jeff Taylor. “With this significant investment in student housing on campus, Fisher stays committed to the Rochester community by expanding the infrastructure and landscape of the college to better serve student needs.”

Located in the heart of the campus, the Upper Quad Residence Hall will house approximately 150 undergraduate students annually, addressing student demand for on-campus living space. The 47,700 square foot building will include 80 bedrooms, four quiet study spaces, and social, learning, and recreational common areas across three floors. The building will also feature a kitchen, as well as laundry and recycling facilities on each floor.
