The GMC arena is unrecognizable as it is converted into a two-story academic facility.
Work on the project began several weeks ago.
A 10-year lease agreement with the city of Gainesville gives Brenau the opportunity to occupy the building renovate it to accommodate the school's growing health sciences graduate programs. (See earlier story. See first link below.)
Brenau has released a time lapse photo of the work so far. (See second link below.)
The arena at the Brenau Downtown Center (formerly the Georgia Mountains Center) has been gutted as Brenau moves ahead with plans to turn the area into an academic facility. (Phot courtesy Brenau Facebook page)
