Project Description
- In response to Simmons University’s Strategy 2022 initiative, Simmons and Elkus Manfredi developed a set of priorities and recommendations for campus development with the goal of consolidating Simmons’ residential and academic facilities into one location.
- Elkus Manfredi’s approach was to understand the strategic plan of the institution, analyze existing assets and resources, and develop a framework for renovation and new construction that would support the strategic vision.
- This strategic partnership with the University has resulted in multiple renovation projects to existing academic and administrative facilities and library spaces, the new 400,000-sf 1,100-bed Living and Learning Center, plus the addition of a new state-of-the-art science center.
