Midland College Daniel Hall Renovation

The Midland College Daniel Hall Renovation is a $7,000,000 project to alter an existing 28,760 sq ft student housing building at 3600 N Garfield St in Midland. This renovation is part of a broader campus investment by Midland College, which has six other TDLR-registered projects totaling $45,885,000 in the area.

The scope of work involves the comprehensive renovation of the structure to meet updated accessibility standards. The project is registered with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) under the Accessibility (TABS) program. Plan review for this filing was completed in April 2025, establishing the regulatory baseline for the upcoming construction phase.

Project Scale and Cost

At an estimated cost of $7,000,000, the project represents a significant financial commitment for the 28,760 sq ft facility. The computed cost of $243 per square foot is above the county median of $81 for similar renovation filings in Midland County. This places the project in the top quarter of estimated costs among 1,060 registered renovation and alteration projects in the region.

The scheduled build window is 242 days, which is longer than the county median of 122 days for comparable work. DLR Group serves as the design firm of record, bringing experience from other major projects such as the Keystone Complex in Georgetown and Building 2 in Bee Cave. The registered accessibility specialist for this filing is Peter Walper.

Construction is scheduled to begin in January 2026, with a planned completion date of September 2026. Although the scheduled end date has passed, the TDLR record has not yet recorded a final inspection. Therefore, the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The project status remains Review Complete, indicating that the permitting phase is finished but final occupancy or completion certification is pending.
