University Facilities Consolidates Operations on Clove Road

On June 21, University Facilities (UF) consolidated its campus-based operations at 147 Clove Road in Little Falls.

After brief remarks addressing this milestone from the Vice President for University Facilities Shawn Connolly,  Associate Vice President Joe Marzullo and Assistant Vice Presidents Leonard Jones and William Fitzpatrick cut the ceremonial ribbon welcoming staff into our new home.

The facility provides UF with 33,650 GSF of space to accommodate the Facilities Logistic Support, Maintenance and Engineering, and Building Services departments.   The renovation includes an exterior renovation comparable to that of the Center for Clinical Services, including roof replacement, siding and structural steel supports.  Within the building renovations include open-plan offices, meeting rooms, a mail distribution center, the Facilities Customer Service Center, locker rooms, a break area, and a variety of trade-specific shops and production centers.

The building features 6,850 NSF of Trades shop space, 6,300 NSF of Grounds and Housekeeping storage and work space and a 3,700 NSF Postal Services hub to serve the University’s shipping, receiving, mail, and U.S. Passport processing needs.  An open-office floor plan and modern meeting facilities accommodate Parking Services, the Facilities Customer Service Center, and AVP back office operations.
