Quincy is known for its strong sense of community as well as its beloved mascot, the penguin. A centrally located house with a brand new Stone Hall, Quincy offers much to its 468 residents, including the Quincy-residents-only Qube library, a great dining hall, and a late night Grille where many residents are known to end their weekend nights.

\r\nHousing in Quincy is split between two buildings, New Quincy and Stone Hall. This may be counterintuitive, but New Quincy is actually the older building and Stone Hall was renovated and finished for Fall 2013. Stone Hall, which has just around 70 suites, is full of mostly doubles and singles, while the suites in New Quincy are usually duplexes for five people each. While Stone Hallians are often proud to boast about the newness of their rooms, the hallway bathrooms and disconnected common spaces are nothing to brag about. Sophomores can definitely be found in n+1 housing and it only gets better for juniors and seniors. One of the most coveted rooms in Quincy is the eight-person Balcony Suite, so-named because the giant room comes with a private balcony with views of the Quincy yard.

\r\nQuincy is the only wheelchair accessible River House, with working elevators in both New Quincy and Stone Hall. This not only makes moving days easier, but also facilitates an excuse to avoid the possible seven flights of stairs should you be living on the top floor of New Quincy.

\r\nFrom the Qube library to regular Penguin Pubs in the JCR, Quincy residents love to work and play together. Quincy is even self dubbed as “The People’s House,” as students pride themselves on being the most open and welcoming community on campus. Quincy Grille is a shining example of this, a late night diner where students can do homework by day and order mozzarella sticks, curly fries and more until the wee hours on weekend nights.

', [Quincy is not built in the Neo-Georgian style that most River Houses are proud to have. It is quite monolithic and hunting for a seat in the dining hall can get tiresome. Those Stone Hall rooms, while many are singles, leave much to be desired. Of course, these are minute qualms and the reality is Quincy House has few problems.
