Monmouth University Multipurpose Activity Center Topped Off
Monmouth University recently held a “Topping Off” ceremony for its new Multipurpose Activity Center. The final steel beam was signed by the University’s high level donors and distinguished leaders and was hoisted into place during a ceremony on June 26, 2008. An evergreen tree was also placed atop the beam to symbolize the building project is proceeding well, without injury, and to wish good luck to the future occupants of the building.
The MAC, which will serve students, faculty, employees, alumni and residents of the local community, will contain a multi-purpose gymnasium with 4,100 installed seats and a 200M, 6-lane indoor track. The new building will also be home to the University Bookstore, the Monmouth University Athletics Hall of Fame, home and opposing locker rooms, educational and administrative areas, a new Varsity Club, and a new Fitness Center.
The structure, which will encompass 152,400 sq. ft. of space, will expand the scope of Monmouth’s intramural and recreational programs and enhance the 19 NCAA Division I athletic programs the university sponsors.
