Cornell University Groundbreaking Could Mark End of 12-Year Saga
For more than a decade, Cornell University has grappled with its plan to construct a new facility for its College of Architecture, Art and Planning (AAP). On June 8, however, a backhoe began digging up dirt at the building’s proposed site—the north edge of the Arts Quad. Scheduled to open in the fall of 2011, the Paul Milstein Hall, designed by the OMA, will contain studios for the architecture program, along with a 275-seat auditorium, space for juried critiques, and a gallery to be shared by all AAP departments.
