Last week Duke University celebrated the official opening of the new Environment Hall. The 70,000 GSF building is the new home for the University’s Nicholas School of the Environment.

We’ll return later this spring to take professional photos of the building and we’re looking forward to learn how students and faculty enjoy the new space.
