The Holocaust Center is a dedicated program committed to the remembrance, research, documentation, and education concerning the Holocaust.  The new building will replace an existing building at 2245 Post Street. It will include public exhibition space, a library, conference rooms, and state-of-the-art digital communications capability. While it is a relatively small building at about 17,000 SF, it will be a very challenging project due to a narrow lot and minimal staging areas. It is likely that the project team will opt for a mass timber building.
