Suzzallo Library Reborn for Earthquakes | Washington Huskies Basketball News

Suzzallo Library, once hidden behind scaffolding, is finally emerging stronger and cleaner after a major seismic upgrade that began in 2018. Designed to withstand earthquakes by reinforcing masonry and bracing the roof, the project also restored the historic stone facade—revealing layers of deterioration, vegetation, and window damage that required deeper work than originally planned. The renovation honors the university’s motto “Lux Sit” not as “let there be light,” but as “let the light continue to exist”—a philosophy embodied in preserving the building’s legacy. Scaffolding came down in early July 2026, with full completion expected by December. As the 14th campus building to receive this critical reinforcement, Suzzallo stands as a symbol of resilience, ensuring generations can still see the light through its windows for another century.
