The Second Floor Lobby is a beautifully appointed common area just up the winding wooden staircases off the Main Lobby. It is situated outside some of our most popular meeting and conference spaces –including the Ben Franklin and Golkin rooms–and can provide students and guests with a perfect spot for a break (this area can also be kept in mind for a conference breakfast buffet or a reception). Additionally, the west side of the lobby leads to the second floor’s most distinguished space, the Class of ’49 Auditorium.
