Professor Bill Galloway Student Trip

This October, Professor Bill Galloway took his third-year architecture students on a four-day trip across New England, exploring Boston and Exeter, New Hampshire.

The group enjoyed a comprehensive itinerary, experiencing and studying some of Boston's most famous architectural works. They visited landmark buildings such as the Boston Public Library by McKim, Mead and White, the MIT Chapel by Eero Saarinen, the Stata Center by Frank Gehry, and the Carpenter Center by Le Corbusier, amongst many other treasures. The Boston stop also included a visit to the Payette office, where the students got a first-hand look at the work produced by the Openlab: Boston program, one of the domestic options offered to fourth-year architecture students. The group was also fortunate to have the opportunity to visit Exeter Library, designed by Louis Kahn. The library, located an hour outside of Boston, is owned by Phillips Exeter Academy in Exeter, New Hampshire.
