Quai d'Orsay Blog
In August 2017, as part of the final stages of our five-year campus development plan, we became the proud owners of 69 quai d’Orsay, located in the middle of our 7th arrondissement campus. On the banks of the Seine, the building is situated directly behind our Combes Student Life Center, and its renovation connects it seamlessly to the Combes building. The purchase provided an unprecedented opportunity to achieve our student-centered vision, as students move from classrooms and student activities in Combes to the Quai d'Orsay Learning Commons, which supports all aspects of their academic and professional growth. Below you will find an archive of the development process, which modernized and consolidated AUP's campus in the heart of Paris.
The blog was written by the Director of Campus Planning and Facilities, David Horn.
