This is what the Xavier campus will look like with a 250,000 square foot Convocation Center on it. This aerial photo with an artist's rendering of the facility super-imposed on it, offers a good idea of the scope of this project. The hilly area beyond the pit between Buenger Hall and the Cohen Center will become the "living room" of Xavier when it is completed. . While many details of the building's features and look are to be determined based upon thefinancal arrangements, it will includ{! a 200,000 square foot, 10,000 seat arena; a 24,000 square foot dining facility and a 21,000 square foot conference center. The current estimates are that the project will cost $39 million.
