Alexia Hall developed a formerly unused site area to connect two existing buildings and add 40,000 square feet of new program space to the Alverno Campus. The ground floor added new art classrooms, a dance studio, and an art gallery. The first floor includes a high-fidelity nursing simulation center and clinical nursing skills lab for the JoAnn McGrath School of Nursing. The second floor features six new classrooms with active learning technologies, meeting and breakout rooms and collaborative student study spaces. All three floors are organized around an open stair connecting new to old and featuring an historic building elevation.
