McConnell Engineering – Accessibility To The 8th Floor

Type: Construction / Status: Validation

The McConnell Engineering Building features a modern use of concrete faced with stone, interrupted regularly by bands of windows. It is a very functional structure containing many labs and offices on all its floors and two large lecture theatres, one spanning the first and second floors, the other placed above it on the second and third floors.
