Lenfesty Courtyard
Like the rest of Mary Ann Cofrin Hall, the courtyard design demonstrates ecologically responsible architecture. Rainwater is captured from the roof for the cistern and the pond. Recycled utility poles were used to build the trellis and recycled stone slabs surround the pond and planters. The trellis will support native Virginia creeper whose dense foliage will shade the west facing windows.
Mary Ann Cofrin Hall's central courtyard features bench seating, a relaxing water feature and plant life that is indigenous to Northeast Wisconsin. It's popular with students and visitors looking for a quiet place to read, study, or to just view the gardens.
