A new entrance to the campus of Washington University is being built for the School of Engineering & Applied Science building, adjacent to the newly completed Stephen F. & Camilla T. Brauer Hall, near the corner of Skinker Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway, according to Chancellor Mark S. Wrighton.
The next phase in the new complex of School of Engineering buildings at the northeast corner of the Danforth Campus, the building will be named in recognition of the late Preston M. Green, an alumnus of School of Engineering & Applied Science, who gave $8 million to support the School of Engineering and the Department of Electrical & Systems Engineering, a gift announced by Wrighton in 2006. Nancy Green, Preston’s widow, lives in St. Louis and serves on the advisory board for the Preston M. Green Charitable Foundation.
In 2010, the foundation committed an additional $5 million to support the construction of Preston M. Green Hall. Green Hall will provide stateof-art engineering research facilities that are critical to the continued development of the school’s strategic plan, including additional space for the Preston M. Green Department of Electrical & Systems Engineering and other programs. Green Hall will connect to Brauer Hall, whose construction recently was finished and which houses additional engineering research labs as well as instructional facilities.
