Yesterday, I took a walk around the Phillips Exeter Academy campus with some friends, and was struck by the architecture of the George H. Love Gymnasium. Completed in 1970, it is a stark, yet beautiful contrast to the more traditional ivy-covered buildings that surround it.
Later, I searched online for more information, but could only find that it "covers an area of 220,000 square feet and includes two indoor hockey rinks, an eight-lane indoor swimming pool, exercise and weight rooms, a 130 x 200-foot gym large enough for three simultaneous basketball games, as well as training, conference, and office facilities. "
I am very curious as to how this building came to be. If anyone knows more about it, or at least who designed it, please feel free to comment or email using the links provided here!
