Phase 1 (Complete) Progress Pictures

---

All Phase 1 work has now been completed, and property is ready for Fall Semester 2026. This work included:

After necessary privacy fence sections were removed to allow the backyard expansion, this fencing has now been replaced with new cypress privacy fencing around the expanded backyard. There is temporary fencing at the south section to provide a barrier until the Annex can be built. After the Annex has been completed, the cypress fencing will be extended to this new building.

A number of trees at the rear of our property were removed (Auburn University approval required) and the backyard was significantly expanded and graded to provide more useable space and facilitate water drainage. There was also a building pad established for the Annex. The disturbed areas were grassed

There have been a total of 22 new parking spaces added to north parking lot, with 10 of these spaces in the front entry radius and another 12 spaces in the parking lot expansion.

Along with the move of the existing MegaSlam basketball goal, an additional MegaSlam commercial basketball goal was purchased and installed in the expanded north parking lot so there is a goal at each side. Collegiate basketball court striping was also added to this section of the parking lot along with fraternity lettering at midcourt.

A number of Annex utility stub outs were run to within 5’ of the new building pad. These include a domestic water line, a fire main water line, and a sewer connection. There were also empty conduits run to accommodate the future Alabama Power connection and future Auburn University provided internet service.

Based on the landscaping plan approved by Auburn University, there were 13 Overcup Oak trees, 9 Saucer Magnolia trees and 69 Distylium shrubs planted along the front radius of our entry drive and in places along the Beta property line. In addition, pine straw was added to existing beds around the house.

At the completion of Phase One, there will be a joint assessment by the House Corporation and the Delta Tau Delta Loyalty Fund Leadership to determine when Phase Two can begin. If the “Retire the Debt” fundraiser and Phase One construction have been successful, then Loyalty Fund Leadership have committed to consider a supplemental Loyalty Fund Loan request for Phase Two construction.
