Wilkinson Center at Brigham Young University. While Grammoll has not worked at BYU before, the company com-pany has completed several projects for the LDS Church, according ac-cording to Administrative Vice President Brad Farnsworth. "BYU contacted the Church and also certain subcontractors who have worked with Gramoll for recommendations, which were very positive, "said Farnsworth. Although the bid figure was not released, Farnsworth indicated indi-cated that it was higher than expected due to already-high demands on Utah County's burgeoning bur-geoning construction industry. The new construction will pick up where the original phase of the remodeling left off. This first stage included renovations of the Varsity Theatre, the elevators and the roof. Construction Construc-tion will now center around the Memorial Lounge, which will be converted into three floors to house BYU students services, such as student Life, Career Placement Services and Student Development. The Memorial Lounge renovation will allow for all student stu-dent services to better interact with each other and will provide convenient access for students and student service employees. The veterans memorial display dis-play in the Memorial Lounge has been temporarily relocated during the construction and will be returned to a place of honor when the project is complete.
