Mirror Lake Renovation Project Finished Ahead of Ohio State Move-In Day

When Ohio State students return to campus within the week, they'll be greeted by the return of an iconic campus landmark, but with a new look.

Ohio State's mirror lake has been closed for nearly two years for renovations following the death of student Austin Singletary, but the fences are finally down, allowing for a clean look at the newly-renovated lake.

The lake now features a soft bottom and gradual slopes, with the shore lined with plants and vegetation, providing both a more natural look and increased safety, after a broken neck was the cause of Singletary's tragic death.
