William D. Carmichael Arena Addition and Renovation

Carmichael Arena is the home of the UNC Women's Basketball program, as well as the Volleyball, Wrestling and Gymnastics programs. The renovation and addition project was focused on providing additional office space for athletics, adding air conditioning, updating of the fire alarm system, and an automatic fire protection system. Addressing life safety and handicapped accessibility was also a priority during the renovation. Inside the arena, the acoustics and broadcast capabilities were improved significantly. The original 1960's era facade was updated to make the arena more compatible with the architecture of the adjacent historic buildings.
