New Dormitory and Master Plan for the Hotchkiss School (Dana Dormitory)

  • The Hotchkiss School is a private boarding school located in in Lakeville, Connecticut. Founded in 1891, it was a boys school at the time of project commission. The school became coeducational in 1974.

  • The original project project scope includes the design of a Master Plan, two dormitories, an auditorium building and a classroom building for the school. This is later revised to design a new dormitory building.

  • The building program is for a 60 room dormitory for boys, to replace the last remaining student housing in the old Main Building.

  • The dormitory is dedicated in 1964

  • In addition to designing the Dana Dormitory building, Rudolph briefly serves as the school’s architect.
