The main campus is on a 25 acres site located near downtown Brooklyn. The six studio-based programs in the School of Architecture are situated one block from the central campus mall in Higgins Hall, a recently renovated state-of-the-art studio building. The entire building complex includes a 250-seat auditorium, multi-media rooms, classrooms, offices, studio, and extensive production and computer labs.

The Manhattan Campus houses three programs from the School of Architecture in the 14th Street facility near the corner of 7th Avenue. This seven-story building is a landmark in the neighborhood and provides laboratories, classrooms, and offices for students and faculty as well as its own library.
