Building The Future

A one-of-a-kind structure is being constructed on the UW-Madison campus, and what you see on the work site reflects a unique vision for the entire project.
Workers will tell you it's a special project, one that requires a high level of skill because the Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery is intended to be a 100-year structure... built to last.

Quality and collaboration are key ideas, during construction and into the life of this building, where interdisciplinary scientists will work side-by-side in two research institutes under one roof.

In this story, see the unique elements of this building and hear how workers are committed to building the future.
