Leon Williams brings years of construction experience to campus projects

Across the nation, construction on campuses is booming as colleges and universities replace aging facilities built in the 1960s. In addition, administrators are building new facilities with recruitment in mind, designing them to cater to the desires and interests of younger generations.

Campus Construction Experience

When it comes to building and renovating facilities on college campuses, it pays to utilize a contractor with proven educational facility expertise. Leon Williams Contractors has been specializing in educational facility construction for decades, including dozens of projects for the University of Tennessee system.

Most recently, in August 2018, we completed two projects at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, including the renovation of the 13,000-square-foot UTC Crossroads Dining Hall. We replaced all the furniture, food stations and fixtures in the facility, adding a Mongolian grill concept and sushi machine.

We also built out facilities for three new dining options inside UTC’s new West Campus Housing building: Einstein Bros.® Bagels, Dippers southern fried and grilled chicken, and a Provisions on Demand (P.O.D.) quick-serve store.

In 2017, Leon Williams Contractors completed its 22^nd project on the University of Tennessee at Knoxville campus, renovating and remodeling of the Thompson-Boling Arena dining area. The remodel included a new Which Wich, Bento Sushi, Grab n Go salads and sandwiches and the Southern Kitchen hot line.
