Zelkova Street

As part of the construction work for the new science facilities OCU has replaced the Faculty of Science building, carried out earthquake resistance construction work and redesigned the street in front of the facilities. All work was completed by the end of January 2014.

The finishing touches are now being made to the redesigned Zelkova Street. A model will be on show on the ground floor of the Media Center until the end of February.
