MMC Holds Groundbreaking for Lowerre Family Terrace

(New York, NY) On June 25 President Shaver gathered with Paul C. Lowerre ’81, his wife Ursula, and members of the MMC administration to hold a groundbreaking ceremony for Marymount Manhattan’s Lowerre Family Terrace. The rooftop terrace, set to be complete in the spring of 2008, will be a much-needed on campus place for students, faculty and staff to gather and participate in the MMC community.

The 5,000-square-foot rooftop will connect the third floors of the Nugent and Main buildings and will be accessible through the Shanahan Library. Featuring a glass water-wall and a large trellis with seating, the rooftop will be able to accommodate about 200 people at any time. It will be wheelchair-accessible and will include movable furniture, benches, a wooden deck, space heaters and Wi-Fi service for library or personal laptops.
