The Warehouse, the former Dunk & Bright furniture warehouse in Armory Square, will open for classes beginning today.

The building was purchased by Syracuse University last year and has undergone a $9 million renovation to hold architecture and design classes, according to an SU New Services news release.

The facility will host classes for 617 SU students in the School of Architecture and the College of Visual and Performing Arts, the news release stated.

In the future, the Warehouse will house spaces for local artists to display their work in public art galleries.

The grand opening for the Warehouse will take place on March 30.
