From the Botanical gardens in Uppsala, Sweden. This building is Linneanum, an orangery built in 1787-1807 as a place for lectures on botany held by the university. The left wing is used to house plants during the winter months, the right one is used as offices for SCAS (Swedish Collegium of Advanced Study), and all are still in the hands of Uppsala University.

Next to the Sanssouci Park is the landmark of the University of Potsdam: The Communs, the representative outbuildings of the New Palace. A relatively young university that was founded in 1991.
Давненько Ужи не выбирались на белый свет,а все почему? Ясное дело-пресмыкающиеся, зимой впадают в спячку)) Потому навязала им теплых свитерков и вывела прогуляться. Скорей бы весна, да?
За чудесный лот спасибо Bonnie Hutton ( если моя память не спит с другим))
Wroclaw, Poland
The University of Wrocław is a public research university located in Wrocław, Poland. Founded in 1702, it is one of the oldest collegiate-level institutions of higher education in Central Europe with around 30,000 students (2012). Throughout its history, it remained a great learning center of a German-speaking countries until territorial changes of Germany after World War II. Following the territorial changes of Poland after World War II academics primarily from Jan Kazimierz University of Lwów restored the university building heavily damaged and split as a result of the Siege of Breslau (1945). The first lectures were conducted in the halls with broken windows.
The University is currently the largest in Lower Silesia with over 100,000 graduates since 1945 including some 1,900 researchers among whom many received the highest awards for their contribution to the development of scientific scholarship
Toronto, CANADÀ 2024.
University Avenue is a grand north-south thoroughfare in downtown Toronto, designed as a wide, ceremonial boulevard that serves as the city's main civic and medical axis.
Civic Design: It is known for its wide central median and formal layout, intended to emulate state and civic avenues in other great cities. It is lined with statues, monuments, and flags.
Institutional Corridor: The avenue runs from Front Street, through the city's financial core, up to Queen's Park. Along its route, it hosts:
Finance: The Financial District (at the south end).
Medicine: Many of Toronto's major research and teaching hospitals (the "medical corridor").
Education/Government: The University of Toronto (near the north end) and the Ontario Legislature (at Queen's Park).
Key Landmarks: It includes the Campbell House (a historic landmark), the courts, and the Osgoode Hall building. The avenue transitions into Queen's Park Crescent at the north end, circling the Parliament building.
The University Hospital Aachen, planned from 1968 and built until 1985, is one of the largest hospitals in Germany with almost 6,600 rooms. The enormous dimensions resulted from the concept of combining all medical sub-disciplines as well as research and teaching in one building.
The main building has a length of 257 m and a width of 134 m and is accessed vertically via 24 stairwell shafts 54 m high. The stairwell shafts protrude 9 m from the eight-storey building sections, creating a castle-like impression. The building was constructed as a reinforced concrete skeleton structure, with the stairwell cores made of in-situ concrete and slip formwork. The remaining components were precast concrete elements.
For sure, this project is certainly not a typical example of “classic” concrete brutalism. The brutalist aspect here arises in particular from the fact that the construction method was left visible on the façade without any cladding, as was the building technology, which is prominently displayed, for example, by the exhaust pipes marked with yellow rings. Thanks to this design, the enormous building is regarded as a representative of high tech architecture, to which the Centre Pompidou in Paris also belongs.

This image is from the Princeton University campus in Princeton, New Jersey. The architects certainly went arch-happy in their construction! There must literally be dozens of arches on that campus, incorporated into a wide variety of structures.
AVR's Job 1 rolls straight through the campus of Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, named after the steel giant himself Andrew Carnegie. After a rendezvous with the NS at Island Avenue, the Allegheny Valley Railroad has three of their SD45 carbodies leading a large cut for Glenwood Yard.
