  • Biomedical Research Building as seen from the street

Designed by Perkins + Will, with Francis, Cauffman, Foley, Hoffmann Architects, the building is one of the largest on campus, containing nearly ten acres of work space. The windows on the east, west, and south sides are inset in a ‘honeycomb’ pattern; there are vast areas of glass on the north side of the building as well as portions of the south and east sides.  Second-story bridges connect to adjacent buildings from the west wing of the tower and the northern end of the book store annex.
