Constructed in 2006, the Life Sciences Complex at Syracuse University houses the Departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Biochemistry under one roof. This research and teaching facility is located at 107 College Place and is linked to the Center for Science and Technology on its south elevation. The north research wing contains five stories of laboratories, lab support offices, conference rooms, and faculty offices. The west teaching wing houses biology and chemistry teaching labs, lecture halls, and research and technology greenhouses. This science complex is reported to comprise 233,016 gross square feet.
