This project included two new 4-story residence halls of mirrored construction. These new halls are connected by a bridge that features eight Gothic-shaped curtain wall frames with ACM panels surrounding the frames. The ACM panels continue around the bottom of the arched bridge and feature a complicated profile and a custom metallic finish. This architectural feature is echoed in the six “bird-cage” stair cases that surround the residence halls. These staircases have curtain wall framing filled with glass and are capped with the same ACM panel at the top.
