The building includes a restaurant, cafe and town hall area to facilitate the exchange of ideas. Gov. Jim Doyle announced the construction of the building in 2004, and thanks to a $50 million donation from UW alums John and Tashia Morgridge in 2006, which WARF and the state matched, construction of the building could become a reality.[/media-credit]
