Brooklyn Law School - Location and Facilities

Location and Facilities

Brooklyn Law School’s academic and administrative buildings and ten student residences are located in Brooklyn Heights Historical District, where many federal and state courts and corporate and public interest law offices are located.

Brooklyn Law School’s main academic building at 250 Joralemon Street houses classrooms, faculty offices, a conference center, dining hall, and a four-story law library with 550,000 volumes. The office building across the street at One Boerum Place houses many of the law school’s clinics, the student journals, the bookstore, and administrative offices.

Brooklyn Law School guarantees housing in its residences to all entering students. The largest residence is Feil Hall, a 21-story building at 205 State Street. Designed by noted architect Robert A. M. Stern, Dean of the Yale School of Architecture, it accommodates about 360 students in 239 furnished apartments of varying sizes, and includes a conference center and café.

All the student residences are within a short walk of the main building. In addition to Feil Hall, the law school owns and operates nine other residences in the Brooklyn Heights neighborhood, a combination of brownstones and apartment buildings, that house approximately 550 students and faculty.
