Penn State was established in 1855 as Pennsylvania’s only land-grant university. Today, Penn State is a leader in higher education and carries out its mission of teaching, research, and service.

​

We worked closely with the university to evaluate the suitability of potential sites. Once the site was settled on, our architectural and design teams went about developing a flexible space model that would accommodate training, social, cultural, and community events. Ultimately, the space needed to be an off-campus center that would facilitate various events without interrupting on-campus activities or student life.

​

This project was designed and constructed for total flexibility in a very short span of time. The university now has a great deal of flexibility in the type of events they can hold, and the time span they can hold them in.
