Campus Master Planning Philosophy + Experience

Davis Brody Bond has a long history of working with academic institutions to develop comprehensive master plans that serve as foundations for future campus development. During the master planning process, the unique character, mission and purpose of a school or university guides us in the development of options which allow us to meet the technical and spatial criteria of various programs. Our record of developing master plans has emphasized several areas of expertise. We focus on campuses of all types, both urban or suburban, and their unique constraints and challenges, which often involve established sites with significant existing buildings and infrastructure. Much of our campus planning work has included identifying underutilized structures as candidates for adaptive reuse, strategic additions, and renovation. A second criterion which guides our process is the need to explore and develop options for input, review and evaluation by our clients. This becomes critical as we explore strategies for implementation, phasing, and long-term flexibility. As architects, we have built a large number of academic buildings and understand the need for practical and cost-effective planning solutions that maximize flexibility and provide an infrastructure which will support adaptation to new functions over time. Finally, we believe that sustainable development is a goal which underpins all aspects of a master plan. The master planning process must include sustainability as an objective and evaluation criteria in reviewing options. This includes opportunities to improve central campus energy infrastructure and overall energy use, evaluation of development sites and the re-use of existing facilities in terms of environmental impact and building performance, strategies to continue to build on an institution’s outdoor spaces as natural environments, performance criteria for new construction, and coordination with relevant campus policies and initiatives (such as transportation) that will impact the campus as a whole.

Design for Learning: Sustainability

Davis Brody Bond is committed to addressing environmental, social, and economic challenges with effective strategies and design excellence. Our global sustainability network includes LEED accredited professionals and a dedicated research group. Sustainability begins with understanding the priorities and resources of the school district, faculty, staff and students. We typically include a sustainability workshop in our initial programming to survey existing facilities and review current maintenance protocols with staff and managers. Based on these discussions, we identify “key performance indicators:” quantitative targets for energy, resource, and cost efficiency that will guide design development and delivery. Setting clear goals at the outset allows us to track progress throughout the project, and encourages wholistic and integrated solutions. Integrated Design & Passive Measures Passive design measures can greatly reduce energy consumption and increase occupant comfort. Floor to floor heights, building footprint, and facade design have a fundamental impact on energy needs, ventilation, and daylighting. DBB has developed assessment tools that link changes in program criteria, building form, and construction methods to capital cost, systems efficiency and whole-life cost. This modeling informs the design process from the outset, and can yield substantial capital cost savings. Working with our systems engineers, we investigate opportunities for high-efficiency building services and maximize these with passive measures and simple user controls. Materials Understanding the lifespan of a school facility is essential to optimizing the whole-life impact of the building. We select materials and products based on ongoing research into lifecycle costs and deconstruction potential. We strive to balance recycled content, recyclability and reusability of materials; maximize rapidly renewable content; and eliminate volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Wherever possible, we use locally sourced and minimally packaged products to reduce transport impact and waste. Our extensive knowledge of industry and warranty standards supports our clients’ leverage on local supply chains. Construction Waste Managing construction waste begins with an appraisal of the potential to reuse existing on-site materials or building elements. For the areas to be removed, we will first look for opportunities of re-use, then recycle the remaining material, diverting as much as possible from landfill. Our specifications typically include protocols to divert up to 95% of new construction waste to recycling facilities.

Efficient Services We work closely with our engineers to select building services appropriate to spatial and operating flexibility. and empower users to take control of their environments via local controls and smart meters. Ensuring correct energy metering is critical to achieve optimum operating conditions. As part of design development we assess likely appliance use as well as special functions and operating hours and propose ways to optimize these. All spaces will have enhanced room occupancy sensors and light metering. Renewables Onsite renewable energy generation should always be in balance with project scope. School buildings may not be venues for large-scale energy production, but they always offer incremental opportunities that we take full advantage of. Unoccupied roofs are prime candidates for solar photovoltaic arrays. We have also explored options for integrating photovoltaic panels directly into the building envelope as spandrels and translucent skylights. Depending on conditions, geothermal tempering systems and point-of-use wind power generation may also be advantageous. Often, institutions can take fullest advantage of renewable energy by negotiating purchase agreements with renewable-based regional utility providers. We also note that renewable strategies present excellent educational opportunities and can become real time tools in classroom exercises. Water Management and Biodiversity Minimizing the amount of water used both during construction and by the completed building is essential. Gray water recycling, water saving appliances and fixtures will be considered as solutions. Landscape design is an essential contributor to outdoor comfort and urban presence and key to our design approach. We focus only on improving the impact of the project on the biodiversity of the site. Occupancy and Building Performance Evaluation Sustainable design measures should function as well as they possibly can in the completed project. Often, maximum benefits are realized with in-use evaluation and fine tuning. Davis Brody Bond offers Post Occupancy Evaluations for all our projects, including coordination with our engineers on systems commissioning and optimization. We strongly believe that sustainable design is only sustainable when it is put fully into practice.

We identified approximately twenty re-use, renovation, and reassignment projects that would better align space with programmatic needs, improve functional relationships, promote greater accessibility for students and faculty, and enhance and support a sense of community. In the longterm, this re-use strategy will also decrease or eliminate reliance on off-campus leased space. To achieve this, we identified suitable “swing spaces,” i.e. unassigned spaces which will accommodate the interim moves for spaces to be renovated or re-assigned.

Princeton University Andlinger Center Programming Study & Subsequent Studies Princeton, NJ

Davis Brody Bond completed a Programming Study for The Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment to expand upon the existing strengths of Princeton University’s School of Engineering and Applied Science and introduce significant specialized laboratory space at the Engineering Quadrangle. The Andlinger Center will include a new 110,000 sf building, the renovation of 87 Olden (formerly known as Carl Fields Center, and as Osborn Clubhouse), and enhanced connections to Bowen Hall. In approaching building concepts, we have prioritized the guidance of the Campus Plan, especially with regard to developing open green space and quads reminiscent of the Core Campus. In light of this as well as considerations of vibration control, and light control the concept locates over half the total new area below grade. The Center will provide shared laboratory facilities including clean room space, an imaging center, and labs for research involving photonics, environmental sensors, and solar cell technology. On site office space for the Center’s director and faculty will ensure leadership and success to the mission of the Center. The Andlinger Center presents a special opportunity to integrate cutting-edge green building materials and technologies. The baseline for sustainability and energy performance is established by the Princeton University Design Standards, Sustainable Design Guidelines, which require, at minimum LEED® Silver equivalency. Following our work on the Andlinger Center, we led an additional study at the School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS). The ‘Facilities Modernization Master Plan’ is 340,000 sf and includes assessment of the existing engineering school buildings, and recommendations for their upgrade over time. It focuses on existing building systems, how they should be renewed or replaced to serve the research and other needs of the school well into the future. In addition to administration, classrooms and teaching labs, the buildings also contain many research labs.

Columbia University SIPA Programming Study + School of the Arts Study New York, NY

Columbia University School of the Arts Study Conceptual Section

The School of the Arts at Columbia University is an artistic and intellectual “laboratory” offering graduate programs in Film, Visual Arts, Theatre and Writing, taking advantage of the extensive resources of the University and the city. Davis Brody Bond prepared a study and program analysis to identify space requirements and facilities that will allow the school to meet shortfalls in space, consolidate far flung outposts, and reduce reliance on rented venues. The study also addressed the relocation and expansion of the Wallach Fine Arts Gallery, and renovations to the Miller Theatre. The proposed plan includes development of a building on the new Manhattanville campus which contains flexible performance space, screening rooms for film, and rehearsal space. To support this program, two existing buildings on the south side of 125th Street are to be renovated for workshops, instructional studios, individual studios, classroom and rehearsal spaces. The plan creates a critical mass of art production facilities in close proximity and allows the School to decant from its smallest and most remote facilities.

DAVIS BRODY BOND CAMPUS MASTERLANNING

In addition to the School of the Arts Study, we led programming for the School of International and Public Affairs. SIPA is among the leading public policy schools in the world and has for many years compressed its expanding space needs into the limited real estate it occupies on West 118th Street (about 66,000 nsf). Davis Brody Bond and RPBW developed a program and a “testfit” for SIPA also on the Manhattanville Campus. The new expanded space promotes: • Expanded faculty/student research and collaboration • Educational conferences, colloquia and symposia • Space for public lectures • Curriculum development • Connections to the world of international and public affairs professions • Vital student organizations and events • State-of-the-art IT systems and instruction • Global partnering and web-based education • Strengthened ties to New York City and New York State

CUNY Baruch College Master Plan and Field Buiding New York, NY Baruch College has evolved as one of CUNY’s most selective campuses and has undergone a major transformation over the past 20 years. The foundation of its physical expansion and consolidation is Davis Brody Bond’s original master plan. Davis Brody Bond continued its work for Baruch College with the initial implementation of the Newman Library & Technology Center and with the current and most recent implementation of the Field Building at 17 Lex. MASTER PLAN From its inception Baruch College suffered from inadequate facilities and insufficient space. It recognized the need to provide its staff, faculty and students with a central campus to foster a collegiate environment and to create the sense of a cohesive student body which consisted of primarily commuting students. To achieve this, Davis Brody Bond developed a complex urban master plan which reviewed Baruch’s campus and proposed alternatives for expansion in the vicinity of its location. A projected space program of 855,415 net assignable square feet was proposed. As many of Baruch’s facilities were scattered around a five-block area, the goal was to bring all the remote sites into a more concentrated area. The master plan identified properties to acquire, rehabilitate and demolish. The master plan organized Baruch College into two complexes: a new site to the north of 24th Street called the North Campus and a group of buildings the college owned to the south of 23rd Street on the pre-existing South Campus. The purchase of the North Campus buildings enabled the College to bring all departments within one city block of each other. The North Campus was composed of two buildings. Following the completion of the master plan, Davis Brody Bond began its implementation with the design of the Newman Library and Technology Center. A second building of the North Campus was programmed as mixeduse tower to house departmental, classroom and conference space. The implementation of the master plan successfully established the sense of a coherent campus which Baruch was previously lacking.

FIELD BUILDING

NEWMAN LIBRARY AND TECHNOLOGY BUILDING The Newman Library & Technology Center was the first building implemented following the completion of the master plan. To create the new library, we completely renovated an 1894 industrial building designed in Italian Renaissance style. The original facade was restored, leaving the structural columns as part of the new exterior. The building is divided into nine floors and includes, in addition to the library, a conference center, a computing and technology center, a media center, and the offices of enrollment. A grand staircase in the two-story entrance lobby leads to the main floor of the library which is organized around a five-story skylit atrium created from an existing lightwell. Recognizing the need to create a complete academic environment, we established the design goals which identified the need for an academic commons, a place where faculty, students and staff could interact. Once this was established, the team began the creative adaptive reuse of the interior with a thoughtful restoration of the exterior. The visual openness of the library and its organization around the central atrium has made the library easy to use, visually clear, and an exciting place to be without compromising function. FIELD BUILDING AT 17 LEX Davis Brody Bond has designed a comprehensive infrastructure upgrade and phased renovation for the Field Building at 17 Lexington Avenue in Manhattan. Built for the college in 1929, the building was sorely deficient in mechanical infrastructure and vertical transportation. A major focus of the renovation was to provide teaching laboratories and associated classrooms for the natural sciences. Responding to a recent update of the College’s Master Plan, we programmed the building to provide lecture halls, classrooms, teaching and research laboratories, performing arts venues, student life facilities, as well as departmental and administrative offices. An infill addition will transform the front façade and allow for additional program space and improved circulation. An addition to the rear of the building will add vertical circulation and improved mechanical services. The key challenge of the project is to overhaul the building’s cores, major systems and exterior envelope while the Field Building remains operational. Project goals include reactivating the College’s South Campus, obtaining LEED Silver certification and reworking the building to provide full ADA access.

Cornell University Energy Recovery Linear Accelerator Lab and Cryogenic Plant Ithaca, NY

Davis Brody Bond collaborated with Arup on the design of this 250,000-sf research lab and cryoplant for Cornell University. In response to the steeply sloped site, the lab building is designed as a cascade of volumes worked into the landscape. The lowest level is a vast physics workshop that engages the existing Cornell Electron Storage Ring and houses the new Energy Recovery Linear Accelerator and X-ray experiment facilities. Upper levels step back to create narrower floorplates for daylit labs, offices, and conference facilities. The adjacent cryo-plant houses supercooled liquids in an underground vault with surface-level cooling towers and an electric substation concealed in a sculpted topography inspired by contemporary landscape art. Collaborative workshops with faculty, graduate students, and the campus facilities group during programming and design were essential to a mutual understanding of DAVIS BRODY BOND CAMPUS MASTERLANNING

scientific, scope, and architectural needs. The curved plan follows both the route of the Linear Accelerator and the arc of the hillside. Roof courtyards, views of the wetlands to the south, and daylight throughout reinforce the connection with nature. The lab and cryo-plant’s green roofs and landscaped terraces preserve the greenbelt mandated by Cornell’s campus plan, and their low profile maintains vistas from the Campus Road. All facilities are designed for a minimum LEED Silver certification. Stormwater management is a particular environmental consideration: the southern area of the site is the lowest point of the campus watershed and in the 100-year flood plain of nearby Cascadilla Creek. We developed a two-part solution to drain overflow from the green roofs to an underground catch basin and moderate the remaining run-off with planted embankments and a riparian buffer zone at the creek edge. 9

King/Robinson Magnet School This 650-student school replaces a poorly designed, energy inefficient facility with a contemporary and inviting building for pre-Kindergarten to eighth grade. Classrooms are arranged around a courtyard that gives students a place to gather. Special wings accommodate a library, media center, art and science rooms, and the gymnasium. The cafeteria and auditorium are a single large space that can be divided with a movable partition. Full height window walls and skylights throughout the building harness light and views. Sunshades and patterned glass mitigate unwanted heat gain and glare. Walls and roofs are highly insulated to keep energy costs down. Outdoor terraces at the pre-K to second grade classrooms create play areas for the younger students. Located in a large, parklike setting created by the demolition of the old school, the new building is surrounded by sports fields and set into a hillside, decreasing its scale to harmonize with the surrounding residential neighborhood. The school’s clock tower provides a focal point for the area, especially when lit at night.

Speyer Legacy School New York, NY

Founded in 2009, the Speyer Legacy school is an independent, co-educational K-8 school established to meet the needs of children who are advanced learners. When the School embarked on an ambitious capital campaign with the goal of building a new facility, they hired Davis Brody Bond in the early phases of its journey. Collaborating with the school’s board of trustees, administrators and faculty, we analyzed various sites under consideration. The school ultimately selected a site on Manhattan’s Upper West Side in an existing landmark building, the former William J. Syms Operating Theater of Roosevelt Hospital, which is connected to the lower floors of the adjacent residential building. Following the site selection, we provided programming analysis of the individual spaces and worked closely with the building committee to develop fundraising material. Our design takes advantage of the existing spaces, converting the former operating theater with a 30-foot high glass dome into a dramatic double-height entry commons. The dining room, outdoor terrace and recreational facilities foster the school’s mission to promote nutritional literacy and physical fitness. The buildings’ infrastructure is exposed allowing the students to learn about mechanical and structural systems. The completed 85,000 sf facility will serve the long term growth of the student body as well as changing pedagogical needs. Our early involvement in the planning, design, and fast track construction enabled the school to open for the 2013-2014 academic year.

New York University 181 Mercer Street New York, NY

NYU’s new 749,000 gsf mixed-use building 181 Mercer will be a model for engagement with the community, promote social and intellectual exchange, support the school’s commitment to sustainability, and represent the university’s innovative leadership as global institution. The building’s diverse program includes student dormitories and faculty apartments as well as a replacement sports and recreation center; a new performing arts complex with four theaters; academic classrooms and teaching spaces; dining and café spaces; and a public atrium. Almost all NYU students live in student housing their freshman year — easing their transition to college life, steeping them in NYU’s intellectually diverse community, and forming friendships and bonds. 181 Mercer builds on that tradition: two freshman “residential colleges” at the heart of a building that also houses faculty and a commons for students to meet, connect, and study. The varied residential program features beds for 407 freshmen, 18 resident advisors, and two faculty in-residence, as well as two staff apartments. In addition, the faculty housing tower rising at the south edge of the site will offer 42 apartments in combination of two- and three-bedroom units. The faculty tower will have a private entrance with outdoor terrace shared by faculty residents accessed from an amenity space dedicated to their use. Situated at the southern boundary of the main campus, the new building will serve as a gateway between the large scale towers of its neighboring context and the varied urban streetscape of Greenwich Village. It will also create and enhance green pedestrian walks and outdoor spaces that are vital aspects of the school’s dense urban campus. (With KieranTimberlake)

University of Connecticut Pharmacy / Biology Building Storrs, CT

Davis Brody Bond’s work for the University of Connecticut successfully resolves a complex design process. We were originally commissioned to design a facility for the University’s highly-regarded pharmacy program; several months into the project, the site was changed and three floors of Evolutionary Biology labs were added. Davis Brody Bond worked closely with both departments, each of which had a large and demanding building committee, and resolved many substantial and legitimate conflicts.

The resulting 226,000 sf building has a robust image but remains respectful of its campus context. The design is a composition of rectangular volumes, each serving a major program element. The largest volume contains six floors of research laboratories, a three-story block houses teaching spaces, and a copper-clad volume contains offices. The focal point of the composition is a glass-walled atrium serving all the building’s users. In addition to laboratories, the building provides a library/ learning center, two 120-seat lecture halls, a vivarium, a garden of medicinal plants, and a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance facility.

Significant energy saving measures include a glycol loop to recover heat from exhaust air, variable frequency drives on most fans and pumps, super-efficient lighting ballasts, and lighting control systems in common areas tied into a Building Management System that cycles illumination levels based on occupancy.

The School is carefully sited to divide what was an overly large and little used exterior space into two well-defined campus quadrangles. New trees and seating ensure these quads will be well used for study and socializing.

Lincoln Center For The Performing Arts Master Plan New York, NY

Davis Brody Bond was commissioned by Lincoln Center to devise a Master Plan to create a more physically and conceptually cohesive campus and to design the new Rose Building. The plan resulted in various expansions and renovations, including the creation of a promenade which physically connected the Rose building with the main plaza and allowed for the replanning of the Juilliard School. Although part of the Lincoln Center community, Juilliard was separated from the main campus due to the placement and design of its entrances and walkways. The Master Plan introduced a bookstore and ticket office along the plaza level, adding public activities to what had once been desolate. The school’s existing

three-story lobby was horizontally divided into two spaces, creating a new lobby and entrance on the promenade level and a new recital hall on the street level. The promenade serves as a new entrance for the Juilliard School and an active urban space. The 350,000 sf Rose Building houses a variety of functions including new administrative offices, additional rehearsal space, a branch of the New York Public Library, and a fire station. It is comprised of a 12-story base building and a 17-story dormitory tower for students of the Juilliard and the School of American Ballet, containing lounges, a cafeteria, and guest suites. Conceived as a

The building includes a gymnasium, two swimming pools, a lounge and multipurpose areas for the use of school children from kindergarten through 12th grade. 8. Harvard Club of New York. McKim, Mead & White’s Harvard Club (1894, addition 1915) was one of first buildings to be designated a New York City landmark and Davis Brody Bond’s addition gives it an appropriate contemporary partner. DBB was selected though a competition in which we demonstrated our commitment to complement the existing neo-Georgian building with a forthright 21st century design. The eight story addition matches the scale of the adjacent buildings and responds meaningfully to their detail and ornament without imitation. The expansion program is a complex mix of guest bedrooms, squash courts, conference facilities, a banquet hall, and administrative offices 9. Princeton University Neuroscience & Psychology Complex, Princeton, NJ (in association with RMVA). This new complex strengthened Princeton’s developing natural sciences precinct with two connected buildings for the Department of Psychology and the Neuroscience Institute, a new initiative that put the University at the forefront of brain and behavioral sciences research. Bringing together faculty from a spectrum of departments, the project’s laboratories, offices, and teaching space were designed to create a new interdisciplinary community.
