A highly visible new landmark in University Circle – Cleveland’s cultural, educational, and medical hub, this showpiece project centrally located and provides the university with a 24/7 student gathering place, a home for student organizations, a jumping-off point for campus tours, and a community gathering space.

The facility houses student organization offices, a student dining area, a media lounge, a separate restaurant/bar open to the public, a 9,000 SF multipurpose/ballroom event room, classrooms, and a variety of conference spaces.

The design for the building has a decidedly 21st century look, with thrusting, wedge-like shapes, and sloping green roofs rising two stories out of the ground. The exterior is comprised of a mixture of precast, metal panels, and curtainwall.

The LEED Gold certified project features a substantial green roof, a chilled beam cooling system, a radiant heat flooring system, a double glass curtainwall with passive air system, and an automated, solar-intelligent shade system.
