The approved School of Business for IC (Robert A. M. Stern Architects) 4 floors

From the site: The proposed Business School Building is central to a campus plan that remedies the shortcomings of an inward-looking 1960s campus, taming the automobile by placing parking underground and creating new pedestrian quadrangles and walkways. The entrance to the new Business School Building will face a future companion building to frame a new campus entry court. A new landscaped corridor – the "green carpet" – greets visitors at the new entry court with a clear path to the College's main academic quadrangle and preserves the campus's hilltop views north to Lake Cayuga. Elements of the green carpet represent the sustainable technology under its surface: a hedge maze above the cooling labyrinth, a reflecting pool above stormwater storage tanks.
