Frist Campus Center, Collegiate Gothic center at Princeton University, United States

The Frist Campus Center combines an original Palmer Physics Laboratory structure with modern additions, encompassing 185,000 square feet of multipurpose space.

Construction began in 1909 as Palmer Physical Laboratory under architect Henry Janeway Hardenbergh, before Robert Venturi transformed it into the campus center in 2000.

Room 302 maintains its original configuration from when Albert Einstein delivered lectures there, preserving an important piece of scientific heritage.

The facility contains dining halls, cafes, retail spaces, study areas, classrooms, meeting rooms, and performance venues equipped with modern projection systems.

The building served as a filming location for the Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in the television series House.
