Barnard College The first new component of the architects' master
plan is a 400-student, 20-story residence tower. In combination with two
existing dormitories, the building creates a new residential quadrangle,
shielded from the noise and view of the adjacent boulevard. Secure and
private, the quad is bordered on the north by a new café and student
lounge. While the materials and details of the building are sympathetic
to the surrounding historic structures, the uncompromised expression of
its communal spaces, single and double rooms and the new conference center
on the top floor convey a progressive image, representing the vitality
of an institution of higher education for women. Publications
