Harold M. Nestor Hall

The dramatic curving facade of this 128,200 square foot classroom building serves as the gateway to Columbus State Community College’s urban campus and encloses its main quadrangle. The five-story structure houses 48 classrooms, nine laboratories, 80 faculty offices, a seminar center, conference and music rooms and a 375-seat auditorium.

Constructed around a structural steel frame, with a full cast-in-place concrete basement, the building’s exterior features a mix of materials including iron spot beige and patterned red brick, polished black granite and corrugated metal.
