The founder of a Jacksonville architecture and engineer company is being honored by Princeton University after making a significant contribution to the creation of a new art museum.

The newly created Princeton University Art Museum will name an education center after Preston H. Haskell III for his contributions.

The new Princeton University Art Museum, designed by architect Sir David Adjaye of Adjaye Associates in collaboration with executive architects Cooper Robertson, will occupy three stories, featuring nine primary interlocked pavilions. When the art museum reopens, it will include eight masterpieces from Haskell’s collection, including:Helen Frankenthaler, Belfry, acrylic on canvas, 1979Joan Mitchell, Aires pour Marion, diptych, oil on canvas, 1975-76Mark Rothko, Untitled, oil on paper mounted on canvas, 1968Haskell founded the Haskell Co, in 1965. He graduated from Princeton in 1960 with a degree in civil engineering and received an MBA from Harvard in 1962.

Construction on the Art Museum, which began in the summer of 2021, is expected to be complete by late 2024.
