Sports & Recreation Facility 
College of Staten Island, New York

This new CUNY gymnasium was built by the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York. The exterior form reflects its importance as a terminus for the college’s axial plan with a pair of brickwork towers set into a solid, symmetrical face. Spaces within are organized around a skylit 25-meter tiled pool with glass enclosed spectator gallery.  Other activities include a basketball court, teaching gym, racquetball courts, and a secluded daycare center. Natural light and transparency permeate the complex.
