The Gwen and Jules Knapp Center for Biomedical Discovery
will be built to enhance the collaborative culture of
its occupants. This state-of-the art structure will
include architectural features designed to frame an
efficient and flexible work environment.
- Public and common areas will be built as double
height spaces, permitting interaction between users
of adjacent floors.
- Laboratory floors will be organized in two blocks
to promote a highly interactive environment.
- Offices will be configured to allow views through
support spaces and into laboratories, creating openness
throughout the building.

The center's location, on the northeast
corner of Drexel Avenue and East 57th Street, will closely
connect it to affiliated programs in the Center for
Integrative Sciences and the Jules Knapp Research Center.
Enclosed walkways on the first and third levels will
connect the new building to the Biological Sciences
Learning Center (BSLC). The more public elements of
the building—clinical offices, divisional administration,
and conference facilities—will be easily accessible
on the ground floor.
