As part of our Campus Mall study, DF Gibson performed a conceptual design and programming study to expand the Dana Library to 115,000 sf. After reviewing several alternatives, we found that wrapping the existing building with the addition would allow Rutgers-Newark to keep the existing building intact and operational during construction.  As each side of the addition gets finished, the existing walls can then be punched through, opening the spaces up without having to move everything out and then back in again.
