Stony Brook University Simons Center for Geometry and Physics

PROJECT DETAILS

The Simons Center for Geometry and Physics is a 41,000-square-foot building on the SUNY Stony Brook campus. Designed by Perkins Eastman, the 6-story building stands between two older math and physics buildings and will be linked to these buildings by a glass bridge. The building also features 35 faculty offices, conference rooms, a 250-seat lecture hall, and a fountain that runs year-round using a geothermal heating system.

As a LEED Gold Certified project, the Simons Center features green elements including:

  • A geothermal system which provides more energy-efficient heating and cooling
  • Diverting approximately 90 percent of construction waste from landfills
  • All carpets and about 28 percent of all materials used recycled content
  • Using 25 percent of regional building materials
  • Frequently changing filters for indoor air quality

LEED GOLD

The Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at Stony Brook University is registered with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) with a certification of LEED Gold.
