Nassau Community College hired Aurora to build their new, state-of-the-art Life Sciences Building on their Campus in Garden City, New York.

This U shaped construction houses science laboratories, classrooms, offices, and lecture halls in it’s three floors and presents some interesting challenges as an active campus.

• The building facade is a **copper rain screen system **on five of the elevations and custom unitized curtain wall system on three of the elevations
• A 1,500 LF trench was excavated for the new process water connections from the Life Science Building to the existing campus physical plant
• Communication and coordination were extremely important during this project, as the construction took place in the middle of a very active campus
• The project team worked together to maintain access to the area for students, faculty and county-run transportation services
