Yale University, Reese Stadium and Tsai Field House
Positioned as the gateway to Yale’s athletics district, this state-of-the-art facility sets a new standard for strength and conditioning, serving all Yale athletes. Designed to seamlessly integrate with the 2007 Reese Stadium grandstand and existing turf field, the building supports athletic performance and elevates the game-day atmosphere. Outdoor enhancements include a vibrant new fan zone, 720-seat bleachers, a dedicated broadcasting area, and a welcoming promenade. These additions create a cohesive environment that enhances operational efficiency and the spectator experience, making every event more dynamic and engaging.
Through its electric heating and cooling systems, Tsai Lacrosse Fieldhouse sets a new standard for sustainability, ushering in a fossil fuel-free future on Yale’s campus. The design goes beyond energy efficiency, incorporating features like bioswales to manage stormwater, a collaborative rain garden that enhances biodiversity, bird-safe glazing to protect local wildlife, and low-flow water fixtures to reduce consumption. Together, these strategies highlight a thoughtful, holistic approach to sustainable infrastructure.

A centralized performance center including strength and conditioning, nutrition, athletic medicine, diagnostics, and hydrotherapy serve all student-athletes on campus including the football team. On game day, the student lounge turns into a VIP hospitality space overlooking the action on the field from an indoor function room and outdoor terrace overlooking the stadium.
