$30 million Ada construction project
A dozen cranes dot the skyline of Tampa because 35,000 additional residents move there every year, but Ada is on the move, too. This tall crane lifts large beams to workers to put in place for the ONU College of Engineering Building. This is the most expensive structure to be built in Ada’s history. The $30 million project will double the space for engineering education compared to the present facility. The new home for engineering will open in the fall of 2019. (Monty Siekerman photo)
