5-story, red brick Georgian-Colonial building housing New York University School of Law, completed in 1951. Designed by Eggers & Higgins and built by John Lowry Incorporated, the brick facade has limestone string courses and an arcaded walkway with iron railings and gates, and limestone keystones. There is an arched entrance with fanlight transom and limestone surround with Doric columns supporting an entablature and pediment. Above the modillioned roof cornice are pedimented gables with fanlights.
This building is considered the center of the law school campus. The first floor holds Tishman Auditorium, Greenberg Hall, Kushner Student Lounge, and the main entrance to the Library. The second floor contains classrooms and Golding Lounge and Cafe, while the third and fourth floors contain faculty offices and the Office of the Dean. It was named for Arthur T. Vanderbilt who used his stock dividends of Mueller Macaroni Company to stave of bankruptcy. Arthur Vanderbilt was also chief justice of the Supreme Court of New Jersey and the immediate former dean of the law school.
