   1. Leavey Esplanade

      This green space has tables and chairs, gardens, grass, shade, and panoramic views of campus. It is perfect to spend time with friends, study, eat, or watch the sunset over campus. It is the site of many events hosted by Georgetown and various student groups including some of the activities for New Student Orientation and Parents Weekend. Adjacent to this space is the coffeeshop Uncommon Grounds, one of the Corp locations on campus.

      You can access this space by using the staircases in the Leavey Center, through Uncommon Grounds in the second level of the bookstore, or by the bridge at the top of the slope on the road by Yates Field House.

      Directions: 1. Begin facing the stairs to Yates Field House and head right. 2. Walk up the hill along the road until you reach the hospital. 3. Continue left until you see the courtyard leading to the medical campus on your right. 4. Go down the stairs into the courtyard then up the other set of stairs 5. You will see the Dahlgren Memorial Library, and the gardens are located to the right of that.
