Renovations to the existing Breslin Center included safety and security measures, sustainability initiatives, upgrading restrooms and concession stands, and updated chiller units as well as upgrades to the building’s mechanical and electrical systems. At the project’s center is the construction of a 30,000 square foot addition that houses the MSU Basketball Hall of History. Located on the southeast side of the Breslin Center, the hall highlights team and individual accomplishments of the men’s and women’s basketball programs. The renovation also included an expansion and improvements to the concession areas and concourses; improvements to the bathroom facilities; upgrades to the passenger and freight elevators; and improvements to the exterior entrances and parking lots. ** “The ability to showcase our university and basketball programs’ history will be one of the key and noticeable features once the project is complete. In addition, former and current student-athletes will have an opportunity to prepare in one of the nation’s finest basketball complexes.” **Mark Hollis** Athletics Director, MSU ## Blog Latest industry insights from the best [Visit our Blog →](https://blog.peterbassoassociates.com/blog) ## Related Projects ![Saginaw Valley State University Ryder Fieldhouse Energy Efficient Campus](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/hubfs/Next%20Gen%20Images%20-%20WebP%20Files/Markets/Sports%20and%20Rec/SVSU-Ryder-Fieldhouse-533x324.webp) #### Saginaw Valley State University Saginaw Valley State University (SVSU) has placed a strong emphasis on becoming a more energy-efficient campus and in 2013, SVSU reported being the most energy-efficient campus [Learn More →](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/mep-engineering-design-services-for-saginaw-valley-state-university-2) ![Western Michigan University Lawson Ice Arena HVAC Replacement](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/hubfs/Next%20Gen%20Images%20-%20WebP%20Files/Markets/Sports%20and%20Rec/Lawson_Ice_Arena-1-533x324%20(1).webp) #### Western Michigan University Upon completion of a 2014 study outlining the best approach to the replacement of the existing ice systems and arena’s HVAC system [Learn More →](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/mechanical-electrical-and-plumbing-engineering-design-for-western-michigan-university) ![University-of-Michigan-ASCP-Exterior-Night-533x324](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/hubfs/Images%202020/market-project-pages/markets-sports-rec/U%20of%20M%20ASCP/University-of-Michigan-ASCP-Exterior-Night-533x324.png) #### University of Michigan PBA provided MEP engineering design services for the expansion of the athletic department’s campus facilities in an effort to include accommodations for an indoor and outdoor track [Learn More →](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/mechanical-electrical-and-plumbing-engineering-design-for-university-of-michigan-2) ![Country Club of Detroit Fitness Center](https://www.peterbassoassociates.com/hubfs/Next%20Gen%20Images%20-%20WebP%20Files/Markets/Sports%20and%20Rec/Country-Club-of-Detroit-Fitness-Center-533x324.webp) #### Country Club of Detroit At a turning point in its 119-year history, the Country Club of Detroit completed a $9 million renovation of its clubhouse.
