First new residence hall in 30 years

Part of an innovative vision to create an integrated space focused on well-being, Brown welcomed students to Sternlicht Commons and Brown University Health and Wellness, the first new residence hall to open on campus in 30 years, in September 2021. The Brook Street building housed 162 students who shared a deep commitment to sustaining healthy lifestyles and promoting well-being. The center also united under one roof multiple services and programs that play a crucial role in students’ physical and emotional well-being, including Health Services, Counseling and Psychological Services, Brown Emergency Medical Services and BWell, the University’s health promotion program. Two years later, Brown opened the Chen Family and William and Ami Danoff residence halls a few blocks south on Brook Street, further expanding its on-campus housing capacity.
