Neumann University: The Mirenda Center

Daniel J. Keating Company completed construction of the 70,000 square foot Mirenda Center in September 2009, which serves as a convocation center for Neumann University. The building contains two gymnasiums, weight training and cardiovascular facilities, classrooms, game rooms, multi-purpose spaces, and an indoor running track.

Overall Cost / $25,500,000
Owner / Neumann University
Architect / Tevebaugh Associates
Project Status / Completed in 2009

The design of the building is unique in that it is built into a hill. Visitors entering the front of the facility arrive on the second floor, but the rear entrance reveals the entire elevation of the building with egress at street level. The curvy trussed roof follows the rolling campus landscape, and the glass curtain wall in the front and back of the building both maximizes daylight and gives the structure a light, airy feeling.

This project was constructed with sustainable practices and technologies and was awarded LEED™ Silver Certification by the US Green Building Council.
