Pace Unveils Major Renovations of Downtown Campus

Joe Colella, Pace Student Government President; Mark Besca, Chairman, Pace Board; Vanya Quiñones, Pace Provost; Nira Herrmann, Dean, Dyson College of Arts and Sciences, Pace; John Byrne, Faculty/Pace Board; Marvin Krislov, President, Pace University; Ibi Yolas, Vice President, Facilities and Capital Projects, Pace University; Marijo Russell-O’Grady, Associate Vice President and Dean for Students, Pace NYC; Jean Gallagher, Vice President, Pace Strategic Initiatives.

Congratulations to Pace University which this week opened the newly renovated spaces in its signature downtown campus structure, One Pace Plaza, and the adjacent historic building, 41 Park Row. 

The campus buildings, across the street from City Hall park and at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, have undergone extensive modernization and technology upgrades as part of Pace’s New York City Master Plan, creating more effective spaces for the university community. The renovations began in the summer of 2017 and were made possible by generous donors, including successful Pace alumni. 

“This is a great moment for Pace University, for our students, faculty, and staff, and for our neighbors,” said Marvin Krislov, Pace University’s president. “Our transformed spaces at One Pace Plaza and 41 Park Row replace concrete walls with glass ones and open Pace up to New York. We’re connecting with our community and helping our students look toward their futures.”

The opening of the newly renovated Manhattan campus is part of an overall transformation of Pace University’s campuses. In 2016, Pace put the finishing touches on a $100 million transformation of its Pleasantville campus.
