“As an architect, buildings are naturally very important to me. But especially when UMB chooses to transform an interesting, older but neglected architectural gem into a dynamic, restored facility for the surrounding community, this noble act of hope for a better civic future is cause for great celebration. Accordingly, it was a very easy decision for both my wife, a School of Nursing alumna, and I to want to be among UMB CEC Welcome Way donors.”
— Anthony Consoli, AIA, LEED AP, University Architect
When complete, the Welcome Way will serve as a permanent greeting to those who visit and benefit from the Community Engagement Center (CEC) each day. The campaign closes on April 15; bricks and pavers are still available and at 50 percent off.
