Construction is currently underway for a new academic building located where the bleachers for the Sean Taylor Memorial field once existed.

One of the sacrifices faced from construction over the school year has been the demolition of Crossbridge Church, a space that once housed both classrooms and parking spots for faculty.

Some of the new athletic center installations will include a running track, basketball courts, and be constructed with the use of outside natural light in mind— a strong departure from the existing blue dungeon.
