Emory University’s renovation delays push reopening to late 2026 again
The renovation of Emory University’s main building has faced yet another delay, this time pushing the reopening of its eastern wing to late 2026. Originally set for completion in April 2021, the project has seen repeated setbacks, leaving staff and students without essential facilities for years longer than planned. The university has now criticised the state’s handling of the situation, pointing to poor communication and mounting financial pressure.
The eastern wing of the university’s historic main building was meant to be finished over five years ago. Instead, the latest timeline extends the work until the end of the third quarter of 2026, with no guarantee of further delays. State officials have blamed the setbacks on the building’s worse-than-expected condition and the complexity of the renovation, which has led to ongoing construction challenges.
The prolonged closure has left Emory University scrambling for solutions, with no immediate end in sight. Classes will continue in makeshift spaces, while the rising costs and delayed completion date add to the institution’s challenges. Without intervention, the disruption to academic life is set to stretch well into the coming years.
