Martin J. Whitman School of Management

Syracuse, NY

Client: Syracuse University
Completion: 2005
Area: 165,000 sf

The Martin J. Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University is the first major building project completed under the University’s new campus plan. The 165,000 square foot building — a crucial step for the School to enhance its competitiveness — contains classrooms, auditoria, ample space for team meetings and collaborative activity among its 1,400 students, as well as dedicated distance learning facilities and executive learning space. The primary design element, a central communicating circulation corridor with a grand stair, maximizes program connectivity and daylight penetration of all the interior spaces. The design integrates the most up-to-date technology and sustainable systems, including a sophisticated building management system, under-floor air distribution, and radiant heating and cooling. The project was featured at the AIA New York State Convention.
