GateWay combined several higher educational functions spanning across instruction, student services and community programming into one facility and without SmithGroup’s leadership, expert knowledge and experience as well as their tireless patience, the project simply would not have resulted in the premier educational facility it is today.

As an anchor in the heart of campus, the building combines five separate programs generally built as standalone structures - literally an entire campus packaged into a robust three-story structure. The IEB integrates mediated classrooms with life and physical science labs, a campus library, learning center, one-stop-shop for student services, and a multi-purpose classroom for performing arts.
Outdoor spaces, both at grade and at the upper levels of the building, provide a popular amenity and an enhancement to student community life. Such spaces include an accessible roof deck and other educational areas catering to different college and community functions throughout the year.
The IEB is targeting LEED Gold Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
