A space beyond the classroom
What came about was The LaB, a 3,200-square-foot late-night entertainment venue fit for studying, school clubs and general gatherings. While it’s located on Baltimore’s bustling Charles Street, The LaB, which opened earlier this year, is a bit south of Johns Hopkins’ main campus, making it more likely to draw students who live off campus.
“In between classes, you wouldn’t necessarily go there because it’s closer to apartments,” Daley says; it’s also located on the ground floor of a university-owned apartment building. That’s part of the reason why Johns Hopkins decided to operate The LaB from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. only.
