UNM NEW MEXICO MUTUAL CHAMPIONS TRAINING CENTER
UNM Athletics is active in creating the NEW - New Mexico Mutual Champions Training Center, a 15,000 SQ. FT. facility for the topic of the arts, athletic training for the LOBOS. This building is located inside the university Stadium, beyond the south end-zone. With construction expected to take 10 months for completion, the facility will extend from the Tow Diehm facility, providing space for all UNM Athletic programs, as well as additional spectator seating above. We are excited to see how the LOBOS will use this space and how it will benefit their athletic training! Go LOBOS!
UNM WELCOME CENTER
Constructed in 1941, this gem on campus was designed by John Gaw Meem. This building initially housed the male dormitory. This soon became extra classrooms, then to transform once again into ROTC building. It will once again be used to house a different use, this time as the official UNM Lobo Welcome Center. The campus has needed a formal campus entrance where new LOBOS can be welcomed with their families. The Welcome Center will host a centralized theater space, presentation and exhibition rooms. There is a formal outdoor patio for functions and gatherings. Parking will be ample. The stories of LOBO nation will be unveiled in the building to all who seek information. The building will embrace its Pueblo Revival tradition with the addition of a modern tectonic approach to renovation and identity for the future LOBO to embrace.
RIO RANCHO HUB
Mayor Gregg Hull and District City Councilor Bob Tyler are supporting resolutions to create a new ‘Quality of Life’ center in the Enchanted Hills area of Rio Rancho. This project has since been renamed the HUB @ Enchanted Hills. It is central to an emergent entertainment area of Rio Rancho. We expect many young families to be attracted to Enchanted hills for the library and pickleball courts in this HUB, but also its new breweries and outdoor spaces for families.
It has been 13 years since the city has built a new ‘quality of life’ facility (i.e. public pool, library, or recreation center) - making this development an important feature for the rapidly-growing community of Rio Rancho. Initially constructed as a box commercial space stretching a total of 11,000 SF, the existing property will be renovated, and sub-divided to be used for a new branch library and multi-purpose space for youth and adult recreation programs, community meetings, remote animal adoptions, voting, public-outreach, and many other community-engaging activities.
The brighten interior spaces will be the ‘HUB’ to a lively corner of Enchanted Hills for many of its residents!

UNM CLARK HALL RENOVATION
The beloved John Gaw Meem Clark Hall, known as the Chemistry building, is experiencing a complete renovation of its laboratory facilities, student classrooms and auditorium. The original concrete structure revealed here, articulates the 1950’s era framework and slab condition. The coordination of the structure with the very large fenestration system for its time, is a classic expression of structural elegance in a large open space. The renovation work seeks to preserve its proportional clarity and incorporate today’s technical functionality.
