Clark Hall reopens with fresh look

Dormitory now features reworked back entrance, new basement/laundry access and energy-efficient upgrades throughout.

Clark Hall reopened in August after being gutted and renovated during the spring and summer terms. The building features an attractive new back entrance, stairs to the basement/laundry area in the front, a new lobby and front desk, new front door and windows throughout.

“We didn’t add space. It’s the same building, but it has a better presence than before,” says Harold Leeman, who oversaw the project for the TCU Physical Plant.

Clark is home to about 220 men and women.

New furniture and flat-screen televisions were added in the main lobby and common areas. The lobby now has marble floors similar to those in the residence halls in the Campus Commons. A redesigned front desk is streamlined to allow for a more open lobby.

Hallways were painted plum and new doors have a mahogany look and feel. Rooms are now a mixture of sizes and types. Some include shared suite-style bathrooms.

The basement laundry facilities and gameroom were reorganized and now include new seating, flat-screen television and washers and dryers.

The renovation also improved accessible entrances.
