Renovations to Winthrop House—including the five-story Beren Hall addition—will be completed ahead of schedule, enabling all residents to move back to the House in August 2017.
Winthrop’s Gore and Standish Halls, built in 1914 to house freshmen, have been under construction since summer 2016. Beren Hall, named for donor Robert M. Beren ’47, was originally expected to open after the rest of the House.
According to Winthrop House Faculty Dean Stephanie R. Robinson, the early completion of Beren Hall will eliminate the need for overflow housing in the DeWolfe St. apartments and allow all students to live in the House
