GATEWAY TRANSIT VILLAGE, NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J

In an unconventional interpretation of mixed-use, the New Brunswick Development Corporation (Devco) completed Gateway Transit Village, consisting of a 24-story building with a connection to the New Jersey Transit/Amtrak station. Located in the heart of downtown New Brunswick, N.J., across from the Rutgers University campus, the new $150-million, 632,000- ft2 structure is the tallest building in the city and has become the epicenter for transit in the area. Its disparate demands were met by an equally diverse set of structural systems.
