Representing a significant milestone in America’s ongoing diplomatic relationship with Vietnam, the New Embassy Campus (NEC) embraces Hanoi’s modern urban landscape while reflecting the city’s serene natural beauty. EYP completed an extensive master planning effort and is providing architecture and engineering design for the NEC. The site includes a New Office Building, Marine Security Guard Residence, support annex, utility building, parking garages, and campus access pavilions.
Uniquely situated on an active urban boulevard, the 8-acre campus connects the bustling city with the tranquility of the adjacent Cau Giay Park. Inspired by Hạ Long Bay in northeast Vietnam, which is known for its shimmering waters and thousands of towering limestone islands, the building materials portray America’s forward-looking, reflective, and transparent approach to diplomacy. Diplomatic functions are organized under a grand civic canopy displayed along the boulevard, while community areas are oriented with views to the park. In the elevated gallery and outdoor terrace visitors can join dignitaries at an afternoon reception in a safe, secure environment.
