Renovations continue in the Architecture and Planning building. In Summer 2002 two new floor levels were added above the Exhibition Room. New mezzanines and student workstations were also installed in the east and west studios. In Summer 2004 there were major renovations to the central lobby and the School of Planning. The Summer 2005 renovations to the ground floor included new faculty offices, technical labs, and facilities for audio-visual and digital media. In Summer 2009 the Faculty's central office and Resource Centre were reorganized and renovated.

For a more detailed history of the building from 1908 to the present, see the library's Architecture Building page.
