Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton and Arizona State University President Michael M. Crow Thursday unveiled the design for the university’s proposed downtown Arizona Center for Law and Society.
The $129 million center, scheduled to open in 2016, would serve as the new home for ASU’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, placing students just steps away from the judicial, political and economic center of the state, a Dec. 5 press release states.
It will also have a public law library and civic outreach center, and will house the ASU Alumni Law Group, the nation’s first nonprofit, privately financed teaching law firm, which will employ recent law graduates to represent everyday Arizonans.
