At Rutgers, New Buildings are Community Effort
For a campus that has looked essentially the same for 50 years, a few new buildings will be a welcome sight.
But the New Brunswick Development Corp. is thinking about more than a simple facelift as it carries out the $330 million redevelopment of Rutgers University’s College Avenue campus. Instead, the developer is building with an eye toward connecting Rutgers to the surrounding community, both by bringing more students to the neighborhood and creating spaces that cater to more than just the campus population.
