HOLT Architects helps bring medical education of the 21st century to SUNY Upstate Medical University with this new 46,000 sf addition. Features include a Clinical Skills Teaching Center, flexible academic classrooms, conference rooms, and administrative offices.
Adding the new structure against the face of the existing Weiskotten Hall offers both the advantage of close proximity to academic program space and the challenge of preserving the window area of the existing façade. The four story atrium is crowned with a 100 foot skylight that offers natural light to embedded spaces, and creates an energetic public space that can be used for large gatherings.
