The Alley Center is a 2012 adaptive re-use of a former downtown hotel into a multi-use occupancy facility. King’s College uses the 8-story building’s upper floors for student apartments and the 3 lower levels for academic programs. The 1st floor includes a 36,000 sf Physician Associate Department. In addition to a 75-seat lecture hall, 4 large simulation labs, student study lounges and faculty offices, the departmental program provides a comprehensive gross anatomy laboratory. The building’s 2nd floor and 3rd floors house 10 classrooms each, while floors 4 through 8 provide for a total of 96 student beds in 50 apartments.
