Facilities

The Yale campus is an extraordinary platform for learning and discovery. Over 300 years, its classroom buildings, laboratories, libraries, galleries, performance spaces, athletic facilities, and residential buildings have grown and changed to serve a mission of excellence in teaching and discovery. The continuing evolution of these facilities—from the oldest, Connecticut Hall, to Evans Hall, now under construction as a new home for the School of Management—is essential to sustaining our faculty and students in their pursuit of knowledge.

Yale seeks donor support for the construction of four new facilities in areas that are poised for strategic growth. In today’s economic climate, these urgent projects must be fully funded with gifts before work can begin.

The Yale Biology Building is a 286,000-square-foot laboratory planned for Yale’s Science Hill. Designed by Pelli/Clark/Pelli, this new building will front on Whitney Avenue and serve as a new home for the Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology.

The Undergraduate Science Teaching Center will be located on Science Hill adjacent to Klein Biology Tower. The 50,000-square-foot facility will provide classrooms, teaching laboratories, and space for mentoring programs. The facility was designed by HBRA Architects.

The Dramatic Arts Complex will consolidate the activities of both the School of Drama and the Yale Repertory Theatre. This contemporary complex will be ideally suited to modern theater and theater training, with offices, classrooms, workshops, and a 400-seat, professionally equipped performance space.

Hendrie Hall is slated for a roof-to-basement renovation and expansion to provide state-of-the-art music practice and performance space for undergraduates and graduate students. The renovation was designed by Kuwabara Payne McKenna & Blumberg.
