“The Hole” — where Cascade Campus’ new underground parking facility is now located — is nearly filled in, and the walls of one of Cascade’s new academic building are going up. Above-ground construction will continue throughout the year as the underground garage is finished.

Cascade students, faculty, and staff should be able to begin using the underground garage by this winter, to the welcomed relief of students, staff and faculty.
