Description
"Situated at the intersection of University Avenue and Oak Street, the site for the new University of Minnesota Gateway Center - a ceremonial gathering place - occupies a major entrance to the campus. The design for the center invites visitors to the campus through the embodiment of Minnesota images ambiguously evoking a rock face or the iconic huddle of the Minnesota farmstead. The structure consists of three distinct forms: the large glass, granite and wood memorial hall which is adjacent to a sloping copper structure nestled against the regulating office block at the north." --http://www.predock.com/minn2.html
