Construction recently completed on the $78 million, five-level University Gateway Building at Arizona State University (ASU), a 128,000-square-foot building that wraps around the Mill Avenue Parking Structure in Tempe, Ariz. The parking structure, which was completed in late 2023, and the University’s new building are located east of Mill Avenue between 9th and 10th streets.
The University Gateway Building contains classroom, administrative, mixed-use and retail space. Owned by ASU, the facility meets educational needs while also introducing retail space on the ground level to maximize land use for multiple stakeholder groups. The classrooms will serve the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts, which hosts ASU’s music, music therapy, photography, esports, architecture, and animation programs.
“The University Gateway Building marks a significant milestone for Arizona State University, linking the west side of the Tempe campus with the vibrant energy of Mill Avenue,” said Tim Smith, ASU Facilities Development and Management vice president. “With its distinctive angular façade, we have a visual showpiece that inspires ideas and innovation.”
