Goody Clancy in Boston has been selected by Harvard Business School to design the Ruth Mulan Chu Chao Center, a 90,000-square-foot building that will serve as a gateway for the Business School’s Executive Education Program.

The Chao Center will be built on a site in the northeast corner of the historic McKim Mead and White campus where Kresge Hall now stands, shaping a new quadrangle with Tata Hall. The new building will be named after Ruth Mulan Chu Chao, wife of James Si-Cheng Chao and the mother of six daughters, four of whom graduated from the business school. The Chao family recently made a $40 million gift to Harvard University and Harvard Business School in her honor.
