Bim Kendall House

Thanks to a generous gift from Bim and Donald Kendall, the Hitchcock House on Fremont and Eighth Streets became the home to the Helga Otto Haub School and William D. Ruckelshaus Institute of Environment and Natural Resources. The newly named "Bim Kendall House" provides offices, classroom, and common spaces for students, staff, and faculty. The building was renovated and expanded to meet "green building" standards under the Leadership in Energy and the Environment (LEED) Green Building Rating System ©. Care was taken to maintain the historic character of the existing building, which was erected in 1958 as a home for young women in the Family and Consumer Sciences Department. It was the goal of the design and planning team to create a model for sustainable design of new and existing buildings at the University of Wyoming and in the broader community.
