Cornell University Veterinary Research Tower Building Renovations

Ithaca, NY

Azar Design Co is providing architectural and site/civil engineering services in support of a full-building renovation of the Veterinary Research Tower, a 127,626 GSF high-rise research facility originally constructed in 1974. The project modernizes the eleven-story structure to meet current codes, research needs, and accessibility standards as part of a broader campus renewal effort. 


Azar’s scope includes architectural support for roof replacement, window and door replacement, ADA-compliant restroom upgrades, building envelope analysis, cladding & detailing, and mechanical penthouse revisions. As site/civil engineer, Azar is contributing to minor utility and grading coordination, drawing and detailing.


The project encompasses hazardous materials abatement, full MEP system replacement, new fire protection, elevator modernization, and structural upgrades—all aimed at delivering a modern, safe, and energy-efficient facility aligned with SUCF and Cornell University standards.
