This is the Bloomberg Center, the heart of the new Cornell Tech campus on Roosevelt Island. This building was designed by the famous architect Thom Mayne and had its construction completed in 2017. The Bloomberg Center features varied set of spaces, offering flexible spaces for different learning modes, workspaces, huddle rooms, and social areas. In addition, this building was planned to be among the largest net-zero energy academic buildings. The campus employs multiple strategies to achieve this, including having its primary power being generated on site without using fossil fuel, having solar power, having a green roof and a rainwater collection system, as well as a highly insulated façade, minimizing thermal bridging. The Bloomberg Center is not only visually a great building, but also practically as it addresses the needs of the community in a sustainable way.
