Gregg Museum addition to take over NCSU chancellor's house

According to sources, the aging Chancellor's residence at N.C. State University (along Hillsborough Street) will become the home for the Gregg Museum of Art and Design.

NCSU is seeking design proposals for the $7.5 million project, which will renovate and expand the existing structure.

State is building a new chancellor's residence along Lake Raleigh on Centennial Campus.

I've always thought the old power plant (with smokestack) would make a great space for a museum but I suppose it still functions to supply electricity or heat to campus. Not to be negative but I don't hold out much hope for an architecturally impressive New Chancellor's Residence. This based on a visit to the Alumni Bldg over there. Heck. And most of the others too. Centennial Campus: the Hunt Library and ... the rest.
