The Institute for Social Research (ISR) is the oldest and largest academic survey and social research organization in the world. Expansion of the ISR’s facilities on Thompson Street will increase the capacity of the institute’s research facilities to support its large and growing externally-funded research programs. Expansion will also enhance research effectiveness by integrating research programs within a single building complex, and will provide state-of-the-art facilities for communicating with national and international research partners. A five level addition (four levels above grade) of approximately 56,700 gross square feet to the existing Institute for Social Research building is proposed. The expansion will create office and research spaces, collaborative meeting spaces, and secure data and biospecimen storage. The project also involves renovations to approximately 12,800 gross square feet of the existing building where it will connect to the addition.
