Belmont University is such as great looking campus not just saying that because my niece is alumnus but because there seems to be a lot of thought into the style and placement of buildings there.  Where is this Medical school going to go on the main quad or what?

To the left out of frame slightly I believe.

That is correct, to the left, but not on the corner just a half block further down. A really deep hole is already there. Also right behind the Law school is where the 3D building will go.

The Belmont University Data Collaborative Building (6 stories plus bell tower, 133,000 sq. ft., underground garage) will be called the Jack C. Massey Center, thanks to a $15 million donation from Barbara Massey Rogers and the Jack C. Massey Foundation. By reminder, it will be located on 15th Ave. South on the open plot between the John son Center to the south, and Randal and Sadie Baskin Center on the north.

Site preparation for the new facility begins this week with plans for a groundbreaking in early 2022.

The first and second floors will include offices for student career development and personal growth teams as well as welcome space for campus visitors and prospective students. The third and fourth floors will include faculty offices and classrooms.

Way off topic here, but whenever I see this garage name literally all I can think of is Dothraki from Game of Thrones haha. Amazing how the human brain associates words together.

Ladies and Gentlemen...the Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Belmont University.  I attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony this morning when it was unveiled that its moniker would be after University President Bob Fisher and his wife, Judy.  The 1,700 seat, $141 million edifice is stunning in every respect.

Watched the Christmas at Belmont performance on PBS last night.  It was held in and broadcast from the new Fisher Center for Performing Arts.   The venue was simply amazing and, my god, those students are talented.    Belmont really has something to be proud of with the College of Music and Performing Arts.   And the Fisher Center.
