Michael Maltzan’s RIT Performing Arts Center Adds to a Staid Campus Palette

Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), a renowned leader in STEM disciplines, offers top-of-the-line facilities within a staid suburban modernist campus. Its core—of which the first three buildings and master plan were designed by Roche-Dinkeloo following a move from downtown Rochester—opened in 1968, and since then the university has steadily expanded with buildings that echo a similar material palette and rectilinear forms. Consisting of nearly 16 million red bricks, the campus ensemble is affectionately dubbed Brick City.
