Note:
These options explore a range of alternatives for accommodating the LRDP
program elements identified thus far. They do
not represent
designs and are intended solely for discussion by the LRDP work
groups
(i.e., land use and environment; housing and student life;
transportation and circulation; infrastructure and technology; and
campus and community).
It is anticipated that a preferred alternative will be selected from
among these for further refinement during the summer. |
