“Part of the university’s mission it to teach, to educate and further the conversation about American music,” said Zach Craun the architect designing the building for COOLFOX, a New York-based firm. “American music is a continuum, and Springsteen is part of that continuum. This building will tell that story.”The ‘story’ is the history of rock n’ roll, at least in part and as seen through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy from Freehold watching the Ed Sullivan Show.
