A new timeline established for the completion of the demolition phase for IUP’s Academy of Culinary Arts building in Punxsutawney advances the project by four months, to August of 2025.
The state Department of General Services expects to post the demolition bids by July of next year and bids will be announced in September, when demolition is set to begin. The new construction will result in all of the educational facilities for the Academy being in new or renovated buildings in downtown Punxsutawney adjacent to the Fairman Centre along West Mahoning Street.
Six buildings will be removed along West Mahoning Street to make way for the new construction. It’s a project estimated at about $21 million.
