Yale University will build a new, 12,930-square-foot Chemical Safety Building near the existing one on Edwards Street, after getting approval from the City Plan Commission. The project is a part of the university’s larger plan to develop its Science Hill district and enable a construction of a new Physical Sciences and Engineering Building, which was described as “one of the largest facilities projects in university history.” Yale hopes to start the construction in fall, aiming for a spring 2025 completion, according to its application. The Physical Sciences and Engineering Building plan originally was announced in 2020. Yale signed a $365 million contract for the project with Turner Construction in 2022. The project is still in the preliminary design stage, with the first phase planned to start in about a year with a completion slated for 2029, according to Steve Brown, associate director for facilities planning administration.
