The hallmark facility of the Weatherhead School of Management is the Peter B. Lewis Building, named after the Cleveland philanthropist who donated over $60 million dollars for its construction. Designed by Frank Gehry, the building has an area of approximately 150,000 square feet and stands at five stories tall. The buildings decentralized design was chosen so that, 'Faculty offices, classrooms and meeting areas are distributed on every floor to encourage informal interaction and complement the Weatherhead School's learner-centered curriculums.'
