Abstract: The collection contains miscellaneous blueprints, correspondence, meeting minutes, and remodeling and progress reports from the director of Facilities Planning and Management and its predecessors. Although the records document the construction and remodeling of many buildings on the UWM campus, the best documented are the Downer buildings, Golda Meir Library, Great Lakes Research Facility, the Fine Arts Center, Lapham Hall, and the Student Union. The collection contains numerous progress reports which provide overviews of activities, and the correspondence documents problems with construction and contractors. Pre-1963 records were compiled by the director from a variety of sources. For additional blueprints of campus buildings, consult the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee buildings blueprint collection (UWM Archival Collection 50).
