<p>My son got a double room Forbes #261 in the New Wing (not the annex or addition). I know the room has it's own bathroom but does anyone have a clue about room size?</p>
<p>i'd estimate mid to high 200s for the square footage of most of the doubles in the new wing. plenty of room to leave the beds unbunked, and for additional furniture if you care to send any. i'd advise sending along some lamps, if nothing else, though, because the lighting in that part of forbes is unusually poor.</p>
<p>Thanks scottie for the info. You saved me on tolls to NJ with my tape measure. It sounds like these rooms in the new wing are bigger then average? As for lighting it looks like the room has northern exp.:)</p>
<p>the rooms in the new wing are supposed to be the best in forbes, if im not mistaken. thats why the first floor is substance-free (provides an incentive to go substance-free).</p>
<p>Are the these rooms air-conditioned?</p>
<p>"thats why the first floor is substance-free (provides an incentive to go substance-free)."</p>
<p>The sub-free in Forbes is the 2nd floor of the whole thing (so, rooms 201-27whatever). I don't believe this includes the annex, but it def. includes the new wing.</p>
<p>no way...it couldnt be the whole thing...what a bummer.</p>
<p>Yup... from the website "2nd floor rooms 201-272"</p>
<p>But this does NOT include the annex. So the annex is substancey.</p>
<p>thats alot of rooms. oh well, forbes isnt the prime location for room parties anyway.</p>
<p>lol I'm sure you'll be able to find a party whenever you want one... just not in my room! (207 represent!)</p>
<p>haha sweet.</p>
<p>im assuming forbes has a tight knit community? whatre the typical weeknights like?</p>
<p>yeah, the one forbes alum i know married a fellow forbesian, if that gives you any idea.</p>
