Ennead at New York University
Over the last 30 years, Ennead has collaborated with New York University in the long-range planning and implementation of a number of key Washington Square projects located within the Greenwich Village Historic District.
Our work at NYU demonstrates a long history of strategic partnership to deliver highly complex projects within the campus’ historic urban context.
At the moment, the only project with a hotspot is Grey (the far left red block.)
Ennead’s work at NYU has been a mix of strategic interventions, adaptive reuse and the renovation of historic structures. Since 1993 the overall cumulative size is 364,000 GSF.

Our work for the University includes Offices, Classrooms, Student Lounge, 200-seat Lecture Hall, Broadcast TV Studio, On-Air Radio Newsroom, Classroom, Project Bay, Faculty Office, Library, Administrative Space, Lobby, Performance Hall, Art Gallery, Wet Labs, Research Support, Bio-Informatics Stations, Offices, 100-Person Meeting Room, Classrooms, 150-seat Auditorium, Facade Restoration, and the Internal Renovation of Academic Spaces.
This timeline would obviously be populated with NYU projects.
Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Center for Visual Arts, Renovation and Expansion
Responding to patterns of campus circulation and anticipated uses, the renovation of the existing building and addition create a set of linked quads and courtyards that enhance the link between the educational and arts communities.
William H. Neukom Building and Crown Hall Renovation
As the Law School’s new focal point along a principal circulation route, the campus’s residential and academic precincts are better connected. Bold axial paths through plazas, walkways, and building entries create a series of linked, open spaces. The elevated terrace provides an intimate, shaded, and flexible space that can be used for respite, informal gathering, and larger events.
Bing Concert Hall
Serving as the new “front door” to the campus, Bing heralds the beginning of an even more comprehensive Stanford vision: the launch of an arts district. An expansive lobby and surrounding colonnade create flexible indoor and outdoor spaces for contemplation.
Anderson Collection
In expanding the arts district, the gallery building orchestrates an extended entry sequence with transition spaces. The gallery layout is conceived as one open room, freeing visitors from a prescribed sequence and promoting the exploration of individual interests. The building uses the materials and color palate of the adjacent, historic building in a contemporary way, together creating a shared sculpture garden.
Denning House
Denning House is a gathering place for the scholars of the Knight Hennessy program. With its location in the wooded area around Lake Lagunita, it serves as a quiet refuge from the hubbub of the surrounding University. Its wood structure and enclosure blend with the natural surroundings.
Bass Biology Building
With an open courtyard, gently shaded by a trellis, the design brings the building’s collaborative, academic environment and cutting-edge research out into the campus community, sharing knowledge and collaboration across the biology, chemistry, and computer science departments.
ChEM-H and Wu-Tsai Neurosciences Institute
The building is strategically located to serve as a gateway and connector between the School of Medicine to the north, the School of Engineering to the south, and the Schools of Humanities and Sciences to the east. The building unites and provides a distinct identity for two important scientific institutions. The oval courtyard acts as an outdoor room-cultivating campus community at a critical crossroads.
