Yale University

Sustainable features

S E A’s materials management plan for the campus area resulted in a reduction of 35 percent of hard surfaces used by service and other vehicles. An essential aspect of the plan uses the natural topography to create pedestrian friendly “green roofs” atop below-grade servicing. The plan also minimizes truck and pedestrian conflict.

Client collaboration

S E A’s planning and design team worked with academic, facilities, and community representatives as well as building, landscape, civil, and structural consultants to support the university’s goals to gain consensus for project funding and regulatory approvals.

Client results

S E A actively supported the client’s mission to build premier science and research facilities while fostering an academic community that attracts the world’s most accomplished scientists. The attractive urban campus environment and public amenities benefit both students and the community.
