Students Tour New Chabot College Library & Learning Building

The project was split into two increments: increment one included soil improvements and associated site utility demolition, and increment two consisted of the four-story, new construction, library building. Construction started on increment one in the beginning of 2022. The new Library and Learning Connection Building is approximately 63,000 square feet and is being built directly in the center of the college campus. The project is funded under Measure A and has a construction cost of approximately $77 million. In addition to being a library, the building will also have a cultural literacy room, a social stair, classrooms, offices, a café, and will house several of the learning connection and learning community groups. The new building stands as the tallest building on campus, offering beautiful views in all directions of the East Bay. A third tour is being planned for early Spring 2024 as the building is expected to be nearing substantial completion. The estimated substantial completion date for the project is Spring of 2024, with an estimated move-in date of Fall 2024.
