The University of Alabama has two major projects set to begin construction this Spring. The first being the new Tutwiler Residence Hall, set to open in the Fall of 2022. The building will remain an all-female dorm at this time and will be much shorter than the current tower that comes in at 14 floors. The new building will be 5 floors but will take a more standard architectural shape in comparison to the existing Tutwiler Hall.

The second new addition will be Hewson Hall, set to open in the Fall of 2021. Hewson will be an extension of the College of Business, located across from Alston Hall in the former tailgating lot. The aesthetic of the building will follow UA standards both externally and internally with an emphasis on the interior that will provide team rooms, scale up classrooms, and an open forum area for more innovative and collaborative learning opportunities for students and faculty. The building will serve as a classroom building for the College, with the Third Floor being faculty and staff offices.
