TEMPE, AZ (AP) -

Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2014 in a plan to relocate Arizona State University's law school from the Tempe campus to downtown Phoenix.

The East Valley Tribune reports that costs for the law school's new six-story building are estimated at $100 million to $120 million.

The building is expected to be completed in late 2015 and should open in 2016.

The Phoenix City Council has given its staff the go-ahead to begin negotiations to develop the university's Arizona Center for Law and Society on city controlled property.

Phoenix is contributing $12 million into the project.
