Yale University
New Haven, Conn.
From a purely architectural standpoint, "Yale University has more show-stoppers than all the campuses on the list," says architect Shivers, even if the mix is less cohesive than others in the League, like Princeton and Harvard. Some of these more iconic buildings include Ingalls Rink by Eero Saarinen, the Art and Architecture Building by Paul Rudolph, and Louis Kahn's Art Gallery and British Art Center. Many other Gothic and Colonial Revival structures have delightful quirks and surprises.
Landscaped spaces--quadrangles, courtyards between buildings, plazas--abound, offering lots of "getaways" for a decidedly urban campus.

纯粹从建筑学角度来考量,“耶鲁大学与这份名单上的其它全部学校相比,都拥有更多值得驻足观看的地方,”建造师Shivers这样说道,尽管耶鲁校园的整体性较其他常春藤联校还是要略逊一筹,比如普林斯顿大学和哈佛大学。它的标志性建筑包括Eero Saarinen设计的英格斯溜冰场(Ingalls Rink),Paul Rudolph设计的艺术与建筑大楼,以及Louis Kahn设计的艺术画廊和英国艺术中心。此外,林林总总哥特式和殖民复兴风格(Colonial Revival)的建筑都带有一种颇为讨喜的怪诞感,令人啧啧称奇。所有地面景致,包括分布在各个角落的四合院、楼与楼之间的庭院,和广场,为这座城市校园提供了颇多“逍遥游”场所。
