Planning Concepts Continued
5. LANDSCAPE PATTERNS Simple rows of trees, masses of flowering shrubs, and gentle earthforms provide a framework of planting patterns that identify the campus edges and open space. The trees punctuate the site’s main entrance and major vehicular circulation systems. Long alleys of trees provide shade for a linear pedestrian system through the heart of the campus which connects to outdoor student spaces near the Barth Learning Resources Center.
6. BUILDING LOCATIONS The West Campus has adequate open space and is able to provide for additional new educational programs. It is proposed that facilities be constructed for the health sciences program, public safety academy, restaurant management/hospitality, and additional classroom space to replace the portable buildings. The Coleman Center will require expansion to accommodate the additional students.
Other programs will require the construction of a refinery pilot plant and control building, athletic and recreational facilities, a wellness center, additional technical shops at the site of the existing portable buildings, and expansion of the Central Plant to accommodate the new construction.
