© Brad FeinknopfThe new Student Center at Cleveland State University has become the focus of community life for the University and the “living room” for students. The Center is dedicated to student activity space, student offices, lounges, a dining and food service, retail, meeting rooms, and a large conference center, and replaces a larger, 1970’s cast in place concrete structure. For the first time in the University’s history, the building provides a dedicated Student Center without the inclusion of other administrative and faculty offices. At the same time, the new Student Center engages and enlivens its downtown surroundings with large lawns and a broad entryway plaza sloping gently from the street front, a subtle and welcoming touch that also provides barrier-free access around the entire site and building.
