Lecture Hall Student Wing

Binghamton University|Binghamton, New York

Binghamton University’s Lecture Hall Student Wing building was identified in the campus-wide Facilities Master Plan as a building that was not being used to its full potential. Its evolution since its construction in the 1960s left a 3-story building that housed a maze of administrative offices and various departments with classrooms that were located along narrow, generic corridors.
