The Ruggles Architecture Studio is part of Ruggles station in Boston, surrounded by the Northeastern University campus. The station opened in 1987 on the Orange Line, and Stull and Lee designed its main structure. A tubular-framed canopy in a high-tech manner covers it, and an arched concourse with entrances at both ends links five elevators to the platforms, the busway and the street.
Northeastern's School of Architecture uses space in the station structure, under the upper busway beside the Forsyth Street entrance. The university describes a 24-hour studio with 300 work desks and four critique spaces for pin-ups and reviews.
The building also holds the school's laser cutter lab, model shop, craft area, 3D printers and large-format printers. In 2016 students petitioned that they had outgrown the space.
