Building of the Day: Manhattanville Campus Plan, Jerome L. Greene Science Center

Columbia University in the City of New York has always been an urban institution. Science, art, communications, global issues, community, and energy are combined and stitched together in a network of open spaces to shape Phase I of the Manhattanville campus.  A transparent, luminous, and active ground floor called the “Urban Layer,” largely open to the city, unifies Phase I. It gives the impression that the buildings are levitating above grade, to share space with and improve connections to the neighborhood.
