Lowerre Family Rooftop Terrace
Since the groundbreaking on June 25, 2007, construction crews have been transforming the third floor rooftop above The Terrace Lang Theater into an urban oasis for the MMC Community.
The Lowerre Family Terrace, the College's new 5,000-square foot quad, offers a respite in a natural setting and features a water wall, heated trellis and garden areas that foster the community interaction essential to student-centered learning. The dedication ceremony will include the official unveiling of the spectacular water wall, designed by New York Architect Lori Kupfer.
The terrace, which connects the third floors of the MMC's Main and Nugent buildings, is the first major facilities project of This is the Day, the College's $25 million comprehensive campaign to increase need-based financial aid for students, provide capital improvements to enhance facilities, and advance academic excellence through the creation of fixed-term academic chairs.
The Lowerre Family Terrace, designed and built through independent efforts by New York-based architects and engineers, enhances the original structure built by John Russell Pope in 1929 and serves as an outdoor venue that complements its New York City metropolitan surroundings.
