I got to see it when I visited in April, and it really is impressive.
The new H.M. Comer Hall radiates professionalism and class and is a one-stop shop for students to get all of their engineering needs met in one place.
The newly renovated building provides an appropriate entryway into the Shelby Engineering and Science Quad and has become the portal into The University of Alabama College of Engineering. From advising to administration, the building houses each office students will need to visit throughout their college career.
“We have a really nice place for students to come at a single location,” said Dr. Ken Fridley, senior associate dean for administration, who took the lead in the building renovation. “Also, with the level of detail in the building, we are able to really communicate a very high level of professionalism that’s associated with engineering and computer science.”

It is a beautiful building. So glad they renovated it. The Master Plan calls for what looks like a parking deck in front of it. I hope they don’t follow through with that cause it will block the view from McCorvey Drive. I wish they could put all the parking below ground.
