The FAMU College of Law has opened a new "FAMU Plaza" at the south-end of its Orlando campus. An area formerly used as a pass-through to downtown eateries has now been converted to an outdoor lounge area for the College of Law community.
The gate-less area includes three 42” round tables with three backless seats and an umbrella at each table; seven 42” round tables with four backless seats; three 6’ benches with a backless-seating capacity of three each, and arms in between; and seven lighted ballards that will display the history of FAMU and the College of Law.
The area also includes two walkways - one paved with brick for donor opportunities. According to Loyld Glenn, FAMU Law's facilities director, the area will also be utilized to relieve congestion in the law school’s cafe and student lounge. The FAMU Plaza increases seating capacity by nearly 50 seats.
The grand opening of the FAMU Plaza at the law school featured remarks by Daisy Lynum, City of Orlando Commissioner, District 5; Thomas Haynes, FAMU Vice President of University Relations; and David Dalancey, III, President/CEO, One Day Came Construction. FAMU College of Law Dean LeRoy Pernell and Student Bar Association President Tremaine Reese also presented Lynum with a commemorative brick, which will be included on the donor walkway.
