The new School of Business at La Salle University’s urban Philadelphia campus was completed in early 2016, built by Daniel J. Keating Company. Kimmel Bogrette worked with La Salle administrators, board members and Business School faculty to design a landmark facility with learning spaces that encourage diversity and become vehicles for innovative, experiential learning, both inside and outside the classroom. As an environment that thrives on collaboration, the Lasallian mission of Mentoring inspired us to design the location of classrooms, office, and breakout rooms next to each other so that faculty, students, staff, and visitors intermingle throughout the building.
William Sautter, chair of La Salle’s Board of Trustees, said, “This is one of the most significant projects that La Salle has undertaken in its 151-year history. This facility will ensure that future generations of business students have access to a world-class learning environment that will equip them with the knowledge and skills they need to compete in the global economy and make significant contributions to their communities.” The new building enhances La Salle’s “brand,” and functions as a Gateway into campus with its “Masthead” acting as a “Beacon to Business” for the campus, the city and the nation.
