As the needs and "tastes" of UMaine on-campus student population has changed, so must the dining facilities and their offerings.

The $5.1 Million makeover of the 40 year old Hilltop Commons (originally opened in the fall of 1967) included completely renovating the commercial kitchen with nearly $1 Million in new equipment replacing all HVAC systems and all interior finishes and adding reconfigured and re-styled interior decor and dining areas.

The work was completed on time and over 2% under budget by Nickerson & O’Day, Inc.
