The P. Sue Beckwith, M.D., Boathouse is home to UI women's rowing and is located on the bank of the Iowa River near the Mayflower Residence Hall. It is the first UI building named solely for a female benefactor.
In addition to the women's rowing team, the building houses Hawkeye Community Rowing – a community-based rowing organization administered by Recreational Services.
The 20,000-square foot boathouse was the first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)-certified building on campus – a designation reserved for energy-efficient buildings. It features an efficient geothermal heat pump system and daylight harvesting and was built with significant use of local and recycled materials.
