Tulane University’s architecture students, faculty and staff have much to celebrate with a new name and a new home!
This spring the Tulane University School of Architecture expanded its name to the School of Architecture and Built Environment. The new name, which reflects a decade of evolution in transformative education, research and design, coincided with the reopening of Richardson Memorial Hall on March 10, after a four-year renovation and expansion.
One of the oldest buildings on Tulane’s uptown campus and home to the architecture school since 1968, the new Richardson Memorial Hall includes 17,000 square feet of additions to the back of the building along with studios, review spaces, classrooms, a gallery, offices and meeting rooms.
