REYNOLDS CAMPUS CENTER for the ARTS

Babson College, Wellesley, MA

 

The Reynolds Campus Center is home to student retail ventures, the campus store, sidewalk delis and cafes, student mailroom, international reading room, meeting rooms and student activities offices. A bustling daylight interior street was created parallel to the major campus path bringing the life of the campus into the building. The Campus Center also contains the award-winning Sorenson Center for the Arts, featuring a 450-seat theater with wraparound balconies and side loge box seating.
