Yale University The Whitney Humanities Center
Formerly known as the Hall of Graduate Studies, 320 York Street is a complex of buildings designed by James Gamble Rogers in the 1930s. These gothic revival buildings surround two interior courtyards and feature a fourteen-story tower and ornate gothic details. Following the completion of an existing conditions assessment, DBVW developed construction documents for a complete exterior restoration of 320 York Street. DBVW is currently working as a consultant to Ann Beha Architects, who is designing the adaptive reuse of this building into the intellectual hub for the teaching and research of humanities at Yale.
