OFF SITE SESSION Bringing Historically Significant Facilities into the 21st Century

Presenter(s): Henry Moss and Dan Raih, Bruner/Cott & Associates, Inc.
Convener: Patricia Perkins, Northern Illinois University


This unusual off-site session is organized around a tour of nationally historically significant campus buildings that have recently been renovated. Projects will include Charles Bulfinch's 1813 University Hall, Ware and Van Brunt's spectacular Victorian Memorial Hall, and Peabody Terrace by Jose Luis Sert, all at Harvard University; and Alvar Aalto's Baker House at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Case histories will explore the unique obstacles and challenges faced by each project and how these were solved. Key professionals involved in the projects will answer questions. Participants will receive handouts on each of the projects. The bus will depart from the Copley Plaza at 2:00 pm and will return at 4:30 pm. Register early; space is limited. Fee: $10 US (Space is limited.)
This knowledge resource from SCUP is a concurrent session presented at the Society's thirty-sixth annual, international conference and Expo, SCUP–36, in Boston, MA (USA), in July of 2001.

Audiocassettes of this and other SCUP–36 sessions are available for purchase here.

Due to our concern for the privacy of members of the face-to-face audiences at SCUP-36, our digital archives of SCUP-36 presentations end at the beginning of the question and answer portion of each session. Whenever we can, we not only provide streaming audio but the slide show or visual presentation used by the presenters, as well.
