WEISS/MANFREDI: 格罗夫一百五十周年纪念园通过一个永久的社区聚会场所展现了康奈尔大学150年丰富的历史，这个聚会场所受到康奈尔历史景观和学术遗产的启发。位于Libe斜坡上边缘的Sesquicentennial Grove纪念林是由Ezra Cornell和A.D. White雕像定义的纪念轴的延伸。

WEISS/MANFREDI: The Sesquicentennial Grove expresses 150 years of rich history at Cornell University through a permanent community gathering place inspired by Cornell’s historic landscape and academic legacy. Located on the upper edge of Libe Slope, the Sesquicentennial Grove is an extension of the commemorative axis defined by Ezra Cornell and A.D. White statues.

在榆树林中，一系列的石凳从山坡的景观中出现。这些装置塑造和构架了人们对景观的感知体验，并邀请游客参与、思考和拓展康奈尔丰富的学术、历史和创新遗产。

Amidst a grove of elm trees, a series of stone benches appear to emerge from the landscape of the slope. The installation shapes and frames ones perceptual experience towards the landscape and invites visitors to engage, contemplate and expand Cornell’s rich academic, historic, and innovative legacy.

格罗夫一百五十周年纪念园纪念着康奈尔历史上丰富多彩的挂毯中的许多声音。四十五条花岗岩长凳上刻有150年的历史叙事时间表，从山顶开始延伸到场地边缘。

The Sesquicentennial Grove commemorates the many voices that are part of the rich tapestry of Cornell’s history. Forty five granite benches are inscribed with a 150 year timeline of historical narratives that begin at the top of the hill and extend beyond the edge of the site.

广阔的伊萨卡景观提供了一个背景，让我们可以接触到这个大学过去的成就，并预测未来的前景。格罗夫是一个有意开放的作品，代表了康奈尔大学历史的连续性。康奈尔大学的联合创始人埃兹拉·康奈尔说：“我们没有邀请你去看一所大学的毕业典礼，而是看一所大学的开始。”像康奈尔一样，随着时间的推移，建设将继续扩展，以纪念未来的历史。

The expansive Ithaca landscape provides a backdrop upon which to engage the University’s past achievements and project its future promise. The Grove is an intentionally open-ended work that represents Cornell’s continuity of history. Ezra Cornell, co-founder of Cornell, said “We have not invited you to see a university finished, but to see one begun.” Like Cornell, the installation will continue to expand over time to commemorate future histories.
