Working with the University of Kentucky Alumni Association and numerous other stakeholders, five sites were evaluated for the new King Alumni House, and an in-depth feasibility study was completed.

The study concluded that a new 45,600 SF Alumni and Welcome Center would be constructed adjacent to the new UK Student Center. The facility will include administrative offices, three large banquet rooms that can be combined to host 225 people, five conference rooms, 34-seat board room, alumni library, Wildcat Club Room Lounge, Hall of Distinguished Alumni, catering area, storage/support spaces and an outdoor event area.
