Work has begun on the new “School of Genius” campus in New York City, which aims to boost the city’s burgeoning tech industry (+ slideshow).
Located on Roosevelt Island, a sliver of land that sits between the boroughs of Manhattan and Queens, the new 12-acre school promises to be “one of the most environmentally friendly and energy-efficient campuses in the world.”
Morphosis, Handel Architects, and Weiss/Manfredi have all designed buildings for the project, and the site was masterplanned by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and James Corner Field Operations.
