It’s lonely at the top

The view from atop a tower crane shows construction underway on the building to be shared by Arts & Sciences and the School of Law, located east of the Athletic Complex and south of the law school. The four-story building will occupy about 130,000 gross square feet. Classrooms to be shared by Arts & Sciences and the law school will include six 40-seat rooms with tables and chairs, two 40-seat rooms with tablet armchairs, two 60-seat rooms with tablet armchairs, one 100-seat tiered lecture hall and two 30-seat seminar rooms. Law classrooms will include two 45-seat rooms — one with tiered seating and one with loose tables and chairs — and a 25-seat seminar room. Occupancy should take place in about two years.
