Wake Forest University and this building are in Winston-Salem. It just opened this month.
The father of a 2010 graduate of the Business School actually wrote a check to build this in his son's name. It was designed by a "starchitect" named Robert A. M. Stern and adds to Winston-Salem's list of works by famous architects. Yes, Wake Forest is one of those top ranked major private universities with weathly families. The building was required to match the original buildings on campus, designed by famed architect, and Winston-Salem resident, Jens Fredrick Larson. He designed for campuses across the nation, however, I guess Larson is best known for Wake Forest University and Dartmouth University? For fans of Larson, he is buried at St. Pauls in Winston-Salem's West End, with his wife.

Though I often post Winston-Salem on the forum, the reason I never posted this building, was due to the back (seen in photograph below).

The architect has a large collection of photographs on his site:
