New York City’s Barnard College has announced its newest project, the Cheryl and Philp Milstein Teaching and Learning Center, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM).
Serving as a new academic hub at the heart of the Morningside Heights campus, the 128,000-square-foot building will house a “new kind of library that incorporates technologies and learning spaces in an interactive setting and creates an inviting environment that benefits from green spaces.”
With a base of five floor and a narrow tower of eleven floors, the new building will be nearly double the size of the existing structure. The space will feature a computational science center, digital commons with innovative teaching labs, two of Barnard’s signature programs, and a social and study space.
The Milstein Center is expected to open in August 2018. Learn more about the project here, and in the video, above.
