Dartmouth has obtained a minor lot line adjustment that annexes 22,400 square feet to the Hanover Inn’s lot, finally reflecting the building’s actual size. This will allow for future expansion (Planning Board meeting 4 January 2011 (pdf)).

From a newsletter of more than four years ago:

The Hanover Inn is in the early planning stages of building renovations to include the guest rooms, 1st floor conference rooms, and main floor kitchen, dining and lobby areas. Carl Pratt, the Inn’s General Manager, together with the Planning Design & Construction (PD&C) Office, initiated master planning with the architectural firm Truex Cullins & Partners in Burlington, VT to identify structural deficiencies and to develop design ideas. The Inn is working with PD&C and the Real Estate Office to understand zoning implications for any recommended changes to the current building footprint.

“Changes at the Hanover Inn,” Dartmouth College Finance and Administration News 1:1 (16 January 2007), 3 (pdf).

The Chronicle of Higher Education’s campus architecture blog, Buildings & Grounds, last month linked to a story on the Inn’s new management.
