INNOVATION HUB The Facilities Master Plan recommends four (4) total projects within the Innovation Hub neighborhood. These result in three (3) total buildings which have relatively smaller cooling loads. New construction along with the renovation of a truck shop would combine to form one new building called the Student Innovation Hub. The remaining two buildings would be an Athletics Office Building and an Earth Innovation Hub. The Innovat
