Made of stone stone and brick, the Engineering Research Center is part of the new East Campus at the University of Cincinnati. An upper level bridge connects the Center to the Schneider Engineering Quadrangle.

Each section of the Engineering Research Center is ornamented with a row of sculptural smokestacks. The building is also adorned with porthole windows, masonry designs, and a steeply arched copper-clad roof.
