Master Gateway

摘要

Completed in September 2013, the new Rutgers Business School is a landmark and a gateway on the Rutgers University Livingston campus in Piscataway, N.J. Known as "100 Rock," the 143,000-square-foot building features two six-floor towers and a walkway connector that spans the intersection of East Avenue and Rockefeller Avenue. Designed by TEN Arquitectos, New York City, the business school building is the first new academic building on the campus in more than 20 years. Its location makes it a gateway to welcome campus visitors. The building defines the southern edge of Retail Plaza and creates a street edge to Rockefeller Avenue, reinforcing the east-west campus-wide pedestrian axis. Additionally, the building is integrated with the landscape, allowing it to continue and embrace the natural preserve. Designed to LEED Silver equivalent standards, the building promotes learning, interaction and community, and provides a functional, workable design that serves the campus' and students' academic needs.
