47 Claremont is one of the smallest residence halls. A converted apartment building, it is made up entirely of suites. These were renovated in 2004 and includes hardwood floors, crown mouldings, and new kitchen equipment.
Facilities
Each suite has a kitchen, but not a common room.
Suites
- 6 3-person suites with 3 singles
- 6 4-person suites with 4 singles
- 1 1st floor 5-person suite
- 1 1st floor 6-person suite with 4 singles and 1 double
- 10 7-person suites with 3 singles and 2 doubles
Advantages
- Building has its own superintendent and janitor who generally get things done faster than Housing Services.
Disadvantages
- Lots of inhumanely tiny 81 sq ft rooms (3C, 1E and 2E lines).
- Far from everything except Barnard. It is highly advisable to beg security for swipe access to the Barnard tunnels.
- Dean Quigley lives nearby, and his secretary will occasionally email residents to complain about the noise.
