Princeton University Second Edition by Robert Spencer Barnett

Princeton University Second Edition updates the original 1999 Princeton Campus Guide and features $2 billion of capital building in more than forty-eight projects. Contemporary buildings by Allan Greenberg; Schwartz/Silver; Pei Cobb Freed; Tod Williams Billie Tsien; Hopkins Associates; Gehry Partners; and Rafael Vinoly complement major connective landscapes by Beyer Blinder Belle; Michael Von Valkenburgh; Robert Zion, and others. This edition introduces three new Walks showcasing the Princeton University Museum of Art, with a Director’s Tour of the collection; Campus Art showcasing forty-five pieces by Alexander Calder, Henry Moore, Richard Serra, and others; and the Natural Sciences Neighborhood, a major initiative over the past fifteen years. The foreword by President Shirley M. Tilghman (2001–2013) and a sweeping Introduction by University Architect Ronald McCoy sets the stage for the Princeton campus in the twenty-first century.

"It's a great resource for a local resident, or anyone who wants to learn more about the historic University campus"
