Originally constructed in 1972, Dwire Hall was the first academic building on the UCCS campus. Although Dwire Hall had an extensive history of interior remodeling, the exterior of the building had changed very little during its first 33 years of existence.

The total building renovation and new addition includes a new mechanical and electrical system, tiered case study rooms, classrooms, study lounges, and department and faculty offices. The East addition is three stories and houses a reception/lobby space for an auditorium on the first floor, providing a major function room available to the entire university.  Additionally, a new glass-enclosed, three story atrium space provides a modern and prominent entry that is positioned to be highly visible from all approaches.
