Gaddy Hall integrates campus living and learning in a striking new facility at the heart of Monroe College’s New Rochelle campus. The six-story, mixed-use building includes a 300-student residence hall, the School of Business and Accounting, student lounges and a multipurpose space that can be expanded to accommodate a cafeteria. Its welcoming lobby is envisioned as a crossroads of campus activity. The building’s prominent brick tower and distinctive blue glazed façade create a visual marker for the campus. The sculptural, open street wall and adjoining landscaped courtyard create an engaging presence along Main Street. The opening of Gaddy Hall, built in about 14 months, completed the college’s development of a one-acre site on lower Main Street and enabled the school to consolidate its facilities in downtown New Rochelle.
