the planning principles, and

summarises the development

capacity of the campus.

Executive Summary

The purpose of this plan is to set the parameters, policies and directions

for the physical development of the campus – its buildings, landscapes,

movement systems and general infrastructure. It fulfils the Board of

Governors’ policy to update the Carleton University Campus Plan

every five years. It deals with the location and size of buildings without

determining the uses except in a general sense, since these will vary

over time.

The arrangement of buildings and landscapes in the campus is guided by

a set of planning strategies -- principles or policies of the Board -- dealing

with:

1. Environmental responsibility and sustainable development;

2. Compact development within a ten minute class-change;

3. The spatial structure and sense of orientation through the

organization of streets, greens, walks and tunnels;

4. Movement (universal access, pedestrians, bicycles, transit, cars,

and trucks);

5. Connections to surroundings;

6. The design quality of buildings and landscapes;

7. Optimal building organization and interdependence;

8. Access to the river landscape;

9. Parking;

10. Safety;

11. Storm Water management;

12. Development sequence priorities;

13. Space management; and

14. North Campus reserve.

Carleton University Campus Master Plan 3du Toit Allsopp Hillier

The 2004 Plan proposed 14 potential development sites in the academic

and residential areas. Of these, only seven remain. It seemed as if the

campus would soon run out of development capacity. Questions were

posed as to whether the principle governing height should be amended

from mid to high rise buildings; whether new land such as part of the

Federal Experimental Farm across the canal should be sought; and/or

whether the “North 20” was needed for academic use. These questions

are answered here by looking beyond surface parking lots and seemingly

available sites to also include those that are underutilized or occupied by

buildings close to the end of their effective life.

A series of massing studies test the development capacity of twenty

academic and related building sites south of Sunnyside Avenue, six

residential sites, and others in the North Campus. Each site can be

built to a greater or lesser number of floors. A limit of five or six floors

for the majority of buildings in the Academic Campus would yield some

1,900,000 square feet of gross floor area, the mid campus some 480,000

square feet, and the residential campus some 900,000 square feet in total.

Complete development of the grounds at this density, that is following

the existing character of the campus, would double the existing space

on campus today. There are 2,800 residential occupants today with a

capacity to reach 6,000; or more with doubling up of rooms if developed

to 6 and in some cases 10 stories.

Under this scenario, Carleton’s full development capacity, excluding

the North Campus but including all proposed and remaining existing

buildings, is approximately 700 000 square meters or 7.5 million square

feet. If the past expansionary trend line continues, it would take about 50

years to utilize this capacity. Figure 1: Existing and Projected Enrolment and Cumulative GFA (square metres)

The identified sites provide Carleton with a menu of available places

to build. Some of them have grater potential to improve the campus

environment than others. The most transformative potential lies in a group

of opportunities around the Main Quad including a positive connection to

the river, and in the creation of a campus front door entry quad in front of

the University Centre and in the future centre of gravity of the campus.

Plan Anatomy-Basic Principles

This section presents the

essence of the Master Plan;

the policy intent of Carleton

University concerning the physical

development of the campus.

Plan Anatomy – Basic Principles1. Environmental Responsibility

Carleton’s strategic goals include strong references to being a designer

and custodian of the future, and acting as stewards of healthier, more

sustainable communities, physical and financial resources.

Carleton promotes a responsible role in sustaining the earth’s ecological

and climatic health through its teaching, research, physical development,

operations and the lifestyle of its students and alumni. To date, an Existing

Building Performance Assessment for waste, energy consumption and

greenhouse gas emissions has been completed.

In its development plan, Carleton will continually seek ways to build,

renew and maintain buildings, infrastructure and landscapes in a way

which conserves resources, land, water and vegetation, reduces energy

use, and limits waste disposal.

For each of these aspects, a Sustainability Committee, supported by a

staff sustainability officer, will establish measures to be met, and review

them regularly to ensure their relevance over time.

For new and renovated buildings, it will use the Green Globe rating

system, at first meeting or exceed the rating of three globes of the

maximum five.

2. Compact Academic and Research Campus

Primary academic, communal, and support facilities will be located within

a ten-minute diameter walking circle. This will require replacement of

under-performing buildings and surface parking; the former with higher

density buildings and the latter with independent and below-building

structures.

Academic research facilities will be located to encourage intra- and inter-

disciplinary contacts, and be associated with their related academic units.

Research space will continue to be located throughout the campus and

particularly within the main academic area.

In the long term, Carleton may consider the possibility of acquiring federal

land on the west side of the canal. The placement of academic facilities

across the canal will shift the centre of gravity to the west and increase

the walking distances in the Academic Campus, as is the case in many

other universities.

3. Campus Structure: Streets, Greens, Walks and Tunnels

Streets, Greens, Walks and Tunnels provide the primary means of

orientation and organization of the campus. The placement, massing,

and uses of buildings will work together to frame and animate open space

while reinforcing spatial structure. The primary circulation systems within

academic buildings will connect with each other and the tunnels to form a

pleasant and cohesive public access structure.

4. Movement

Transportation Priority: In allocating space and priority to various modes

of movement on campus, pedestrians rank first, bicycles next, followed in

sequence by transit, cars and trucks.

Barrier Free Environment: Carleton is committed to creating a barrier

free environment throughout the campus. The proposed expansion to the

tunnel system and its integration with flanking buildings will improve the

campus' accessibility. Where terrain or other features make these locally

impossible, special services for people with disabilities will be explored.

Streets: Carleton will minimize the use of streets for vehicular traffic

and continue the trend toward greater use by pedestrians and bicycles,

requiring more emphasis on generous sidewalks, street trees and the

animation of flanking building uses. A northern extension of Campus

Avenue to Colonel By Drive and a link to Bronson Avenue north of the

field house may alleviate some of the current rush hour congestion.

University Drive will extend to serve the North Campus. Library road will

terminate at the new Canal Building; the northern section replaced with a

pedestrian path wide enough to take emergency and residential moving

day traffic.

Bicycle accommodation will be further improved, with secure bicycle

parking nodes at key locations throughout the campus, integrated

within building entrances. In the residential campus, parking should

be available for both residents and visitors. The bike route on Campus

Avenue links to the recreational pathway by the canal and to Vincent

Massey Park on the south side of the river, accompanying the rail transit

line.

Figure 20: Cycling routes

Transportation Demand Management (TDM) techniques such as

incentives for multiple vehicle occupancy, increased parking charges and

reduced availability, improved bicycle access and storage will reduce car

use per person. The University will support the City of Ottawa’s continual

improvement of the rail and bus transit initiatives that will enhance the

University’s TDM strategy.

Rail Transit is central in the campus. A City of Ottawa initiative to twin-

track the service may enable construction of a combined academic

building and covered station, providing climate-controlled cross-platform

and cross-campus connection.

Bus Transit uses the efficient loop of University Drive and Campus

Avenue, with a series of pick-up and/or drop-off stops and two major ones

on either side of the rail station, forming a transportation hub.

Figure 22: Service access

Taxis are accommodated at the proposed Entrance Quad, together

proposed buildings flanking the Green.

Service and emergency vehicles will use the campus street system

where possible, and use shared pedestrian/service routes where street

access is unavailable. The negative visual impact of service areas will be

mitigated through building and landscape design.

5. Connections to Surroundings

Carleton will work with its neighbours to increase connections between

the campus grounds and their surroundings.

Bronson Avenue needs a greater pedestrian emphasis to overcome its

anti-urban high-speed character. Carleton will encourage and work with

the City of Ottawa to provide a generous tree-lined sidewalk along its

length, with porous connections into the campus. Development within the

campus will seek to establish a greater civic presence through placing

buildings with a sense of address along the street, particularly in the Mid

and North Campus areas. The campus will gain greater presence in this

way, enhanced by special treatment of the important pedestrian entrance

at Brewer Park such as with a gateway feature similar in character to the

one at Sunnyside Avenue, banners, prominent bus stops and architectural

character to the substations in the vicinity.

Colonel By Drive is both an attractive drive and an important access

to the campus, but because of the dearth of crossings and in places

impenetrable foliage, it is a pedestrian and sometime visual barrier to the

Rideau Canal and arboretum beyond. Carleton will work with the National

Capital Commission and Parks Canada to obtain better pedestrian visual

and physical access, particularly at the north extension of Campus Drive

where a pedestrian crossing associated with campus and public skating-

access parking bring a convergence of public interest to the proposal.

The Rideau River flood plain is regulated by the Rideau Valley

Conservation Authority (RVCA), which is interested in reducing

development in the river’s riparian zone. Carleton will work with the RVCA

to balance active use of the amenity of the river bank (such as walks,

seating and patios) for a portion of the river bank, with limits of use to the

majority of the area on campus, as shown below.

6. Design Quality

Landscapes and buildings will be of continually improved functional and

aesthetic quality. Building design will favour architectural interest and

life cycle costing over the simple provision of space at low capital cost.

Landscape design will unify the grounds, stimulate social interaction, and

offer delight, comfort, and security.

Buildings on campus are seen by some in the community as an inventory

of architectural styles, interesting evidence of Carleton’s development

history. To many others, there is a perception that while the quality

of the landscape has greatly improved since the last plan, Carleton’s

architectural inventory is “tired”, old and of poor quality. In fact, there are

several buildings of superior contemporary quality, the appreciation of

which is overpowered by the general perception. The Canal and River

buildings now under construction will add to that group. Over time, the

image of the campus will be transformed as the proportion of higher

quality buildings increase and that of older buildings decrease.

The landscape is a unifying element within the campus. Native plant

material predominates, reflecting the natural context of the campus.

Ornamental plant material is selectively utilized to highlight key nodes

and provide accent colour. Reduction of potable water for irrigation

and elimination of pesticide use combined with an active maintenance

program creates a healthy environment. Construction materials will be

consistent, durable and have a quality finish. The principle walkways

are six metres wide and designed to accommodate both the pedestrian

and cyclist. Walkways between buildings and adjacent to roadways

are slightly reduced in width. Sculpture, art and commemorative trees

enhance the experience. The walkways are well-lit, the trees create a

shade canopy during the summer months, and the shrub material is low

to improve visibility and increase the sense of safety in the grounds.

7. Building Organization and Interdependence

The more public, student-oriented spaces will be accommodated in the

lower floors of academic buildings, with offices above. Except at the

entrance quad and residential area, height will usually be restricted to six

stories and average five. Communal space for circulation, informal group

and individual study and meeting places will be generous, will link formal

teaching areas and connect directly to each neighbouring building’s

circulation and communal space. Tunnel sections will be opened out to

Figure 31: Idealized building organization

the public uses and be given direct or indirect access to daylight. Outdoor

study and social areas will be incorporated in terraces overlooking the

river and principal greens.

Campus and Faculty Identity: Buildings will be designed to establish

both faculty identity and, in combination with other buildings, a cohesive

campus identity. Designs will seek a lack of isolation by speciality; the

engendering of cross-disciplinary contact; and close connection between

teaching and research. While in the first instance they may be designed

to express a particular faculty identity, they will be organized as a “loose

fit” to encourage a long life of adaptation to alternative academic use.

8. River Access

The relationship with the Rideau River will be improved by making spatial

connections to the main quad and other parts of the campus open space

structure, by orienting buildings to the river with terraces, entrances, atria

and public functions such as food services, and by seeking cooperation

from the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority to improve bank-side

amenities such as paths, benches and seating terraces.

9. Parking

Parking stalls will be provided throughout the campus, increasingly under

cover, while the number per person will decrease over time as car pool

and transit use increase. The majority of surface stalls will be in the North

Campus. The remainder will be under buildings and in parking structures.

The existing garage will be replaced with a larger one, with P3 being a

preferred site. Other structures can take advantage of rail air-rights in the

north campus, once a final decision on electrification has been made.

Since most new buildings will remove surface parking and will require

structured parking on site, Carleton should prepare for the increased

infrastructure costs by gradual and advanced parking charge increases

so that surface lots, while they last, subsidise structured lots.

10. Safety

The design and management of buildings, landscapes, and lighting

will promote the reality and perception of personal safety. Enhancing

safety sets up a virtuous circle: the safer the campus feels, the more it

is occupied, the safer it becomes. The sense of personal safety is one

measure of a viable environment, along with and resulting from other

measures such as clarity, legibility, convenience, vitality, and delight.

For this reason, most of the principles in this plan will contribute to the

development of a safer campus.

The exterior lighting system will be designed to reinforce the spatial

structure and organization of the campus, and provide the cues

necessary for orientation and way-finding at night. Glare and contrast

caused by overly bright sources is the most common problem in lighting

design, and causes impaired visibility in the intervals between light

sources. The lighting strategy is to limit light levels to no more than that

required for night vision (which is not much more than full moonlight)

but to distribute the light more evenly, with smooth transitions between

illuminated buildings, roads, walkways, and open spaces so that the eye

can comfortably adapt and to see into shadows.

Lighting can add immeasurably to the night aesthetic of the campus

as well, by subtly illuminating key features. All building entrances and

alcoves or ‘dark corners’ should be softly lit and loading areas should not

be brighter than building entrances. To minimize light pollution, lighting

should be designed to only cast light on what is meant to be lit. Overly

bright lighting which might disturb sleep in residential areas will be

avoided.

11. Storm Water Management

Rainwater flows to the Rideau River over the land surface and via six

piped sewer catchment areas from building roofs and pipe-drained

surfaces. Overland flow currently discharges in two primary locations:

near the rail track crossing and near Bronson Avenue, flowing to those

points along routes marked by blue arrows in the diagram below. The

largest piped catchment outlet is at the Bronson Avenue Bridge, which is

complicated by the fact that it, along with the overland flow at that point,

is within the flood plain and riparian zone.

Water quantity control for the piped system will be provided mainly

through rooftop storage as the north, residential and east campus

develop. Rainwater harvesting for grey water systems, green roofs and

irrigation will also be explored. Infrequent heavy surface flow will be

12. Development Priority

In answering which projects might be built sooner than others, priority will

be assessed from:

• a space needs perspective (for academic, residential, administrative

and ancillary functions), as well as from the point of view of energy

savings and facility renewal; and

• a campus-wide perspective, choosing sites which have one or

more of the following attributes: are relatively free of constraints;

contribute to place-making by spatially containing positive open

space; provide a greater sense of river access; help connect the

east and west campus; and animate the tunnels.

13. Space Management

In meeting space needs, the University will emphasize consolidation over

expansion. The most efficient utilization of existing space has first priority,

followed in sequence by renovation of existing space, additions or infill

development, replacement of buildings close to end of life and finally on

one of the new sites identified in the Master Site Plan.

Over the life of a building, it will see several changes of use. Its

programming and subsequent design will therefore aim for loose fit to

encourage long life, so that later uses fit more readily into the building

frame. The most likely practical effect of this approach will be a strong

and generic circulation structure as the primary organising feature of the

building.

Generic functions such as central classrooms, communal, group and

casual study space and student services will occur throughout the

campus but will congregate in greater intensity in central locations,

whereas faculty and research buildings of a specialized nature will find

places further out.

14. North Campus Reserve

The North Campus is a short and midterm resource as a way to postpone

some (but not all) of the need to construct structured parking, and a

long term resource for academic use once the rest of the campus is fully

developed. Alternatively, if a strong need arises, it could be developed for

land-consuming uses affiliated with the university such as a research park

or major cultural facility. This will require a full site infrastructure plan and

should only be undertaken with a clear understanding of how the whole

site would be developed.

Reinforcing the Main Quad1. Dunton Tower

The Dunton Tower provides strong identification of the campus from a

distance, but is a problematic academic building. The way that it meets

the ground at the Main Quad does not contribute particularly well to

animating or spatially containing the quad. As shown on the following

two pages, reworking the base three floors, infilling between the Azrieli

Pavilion and extending westward and forward, would greatly improve

the frontage to the quad. Bringing the entrance to the side will allow a

more efficient layout of offices and classrooms in the interior. Bringing

the front face forward permits an opening out of the tunnel below, adding

borrowed daylit casual study and meeting space.

2. Main Library

The campus community has a poor opinion of the Library exterior. Some

additional space and a superior architectural treatment can be obtained

by adding a new facade forward, as was done with the Winnipeg

Centennial Library. It will animate the quad and bring additional daylight

to the tunnel and all other levels. Extending the addition northward over

the loading dock will enclose and hide an eyesore, add library space, and

improve views from the interior. There is vertical expansion capacity of

two floors over the rear wing of the Library.Figure 53: Aerial view of Library and Dunton Podium showing spatial relationship with quad

3. Paterson Hall

Paterson Hall, one of the first buildings on campus, is in need of a

complete upgrade or replacement. It currently occupies a large amount

of land at a low density. Replacement of Paterson Hall and later the Life

Sciences Research Building, another extremely inefficient use of land and

on valuable river frontage, would allow a dramatic increase of academic

space in the heart of the campus and a dramatic reorientation of the

campus to the river, which has been a longstanding goal of repeated

campus plans since the 1990s. The slope of land further permits access

from the quad to extend into the middle floors, increasing the range of

stair access greater than the normal 3-floor limit.

The primary means of connecting to the river landscape will be through

a generous green linear court flanked by buildings. It would descend in

two steps, each over a tunnel section which opens out to daylight and the

view as it crosses the court. Interior “colonnades” could flank the court.

Garden terraces would provide outdoor space at several levels to take

advantage of river views.

4. Establishing a Campus Entry Quad

The 2004 Plan proposed a new entry quad on Lot P2, flanked by

supporting buildings including an extension of the University Centre.

The University Centre facade has since been completed. Two flanking

buildings, the quad and underground parking remain to be done.

The north building spans the tunnel intersection between residences, east

and west campuses. There is great opportunity for bringing borrowed

daylight into the tunnels and, as importantly, to improve the sense of

orientation within the tunnel system with additional entrances and views

to the outside world. Tunnel additions servicing the buildings will also be

designed as part of the public space. The south building provides the

access to parking under the two buildings and the quad.

University Centre Addition

As the university grows, additional communal space may be needed,

which can be added to the south side of the University Centre. This would

help animate the adjoining relatively large but presently unanimated open

space to the south.

Mackenzie Courtyard Infill

The Mackenzie courtyard is not a successful gathering space. Interior

connections between the four pods are confusing. Both issues can be

resolved by infilling. Generous public space for study and discussion on

the ground floor could form the base of a perimeter atrium providing a

prospect for the existing windows to the courtyard and outlook for a four

storey core of classroom and office space. This is served on the upper

levels with walkways spanning the atrium and connecting the pods.

Social Science Research

The Social Research building is small, of temporary construction and

occupies a potentially large site on the valley floor. A replacement could

provide a greater inventory of space and make a contribution to the

campus’ river orientation with outlook terraces and green forecourt.

East CampusSite Works Reorganization

On the East Campus, three low density or end-of-life buildings and three

surface parking lots offer the opportunity to increase land utilization.

The Maintenance Building and yard, once on the edge of the academic

group, now increasingly in the central zone, takes up a large space in

now valuable real estate. The Day care Centre is in a similar situation, and

could be replaced within a larger project here or in the residential area.

The parking structure is near the end of its maintainable life. Replacing

these three would free up a large area for redevelopment. The heating

plant, however, would stay because of the great cost of replacement.

The cross-campus walk currently winds through this territory. The drive

into the service yard is now a fair distance from the building. Straightening

of the path and bringing the drive closer to the heating plant will allow

more effective subdivision structure to the area.

Alumni Park Backdrop

A site in front of the garage backing up Alumni Park provides the

opportunity to animate the park with community uses on the ground floor

and overlook terraces on upper floors. It can also improve connection

between the east and west campuses via a new southern tunnel; an

interior link which is presently only possible via a tortuous northern route.

If built before the demolition of the parking structure, it would act as a

visual buffer to the unsightly garage.

Over-Track Building

If the O-Train tracks are doubled as previously planned, there is the

opportunity to utilise track air rights with a building encompassing the

station, straddling the tracks and helping to connect east and west

campus. In the mean time, a first phase could be built on the east side,

with the potential to be connected to a western wing at a later date.

Street and Quad

The primary organising devices will be the street and a new quad flanked

by buildings facing it and providing communal uses at ground level.

University drive, also flanked and animated by new buildings will change

character as a more urban and multi-use vehicle/bicycle/pedestrian

corridor.

Parking Structure

A new and larger parking structure is shown on lot P3 to help replace

reasonably close car accessibility to the academic campus.

Mid-Campus

Figure 102: Mid Campus; Existing aerial view Figure 103: Mid Campus; Plan

University Drive

The plan proposes that the Maintenance Yard be relocated from the east

campus to the tennis bubble site, and backed by a 3,000 seat seating

structure facing the playing field, with change rooms below. To the north

is a site suitable for an institution affiliated with university programs but

not requiring substantial student class-change requirements.

Bronson Avenue

A larger site for similar institutional use, or for athletic expansion, faces

Bronson Avenue, giving greater Carleton presence to the outside world.

The road serving the mid campus buildings and parking is also extended

to Bronson, providing right-hand turn congestion relief at rush hours. The

streetscape is given greater pedestrian emphasis with a wider tree-flanked

sidewalk and an entrance to the building. The Brewer Park crossing is

given greater visual importance with gateway treatment.

North Campus

The north campus represents a midterm surface parking resource and a

valuable long term land bank for presently undetermined development.

Shown below is a research campus organised around a central green

and roadway together with surface and structured parking. Buildings

fronting Bronson Avenue engage the street and provide an urban and

greater pedestrian environment to it, in the process establishing a greater

civic presence to the university.

Plan Implementation

This section describes the way in

which the plan is intended to be

implemented and maintained over

time.

Page 82: du Toit Allsopp Hillier January 2010 - Carleton University · 2 du Toit Allsopp Hillier Carleton University Campus Master Plan Executive Summary The purpose of this plan is to set

Plan ImplementationAn Approved Plan

The Campus Master Plan (is) approved as University policy by the Board

of Governors.

The Department of Facilities Management and Planning will ensure that

every project is measured against the Campus Master Plan at all stages

of the Project Development Process.

Updating the Plan

In order to respond to changing needs over time, the plan will be evolve

through amendments as necessary and updates every five years.

Plan Amendment: All projects must follow the principles of the

Plan, or else an amendment is purposely made. The Assistant Vice-

President (Facilities Management and Planning) will review and advise

as to whether a proposed project is consistent with the Plan, and will

propose whether a major or minor amendment should be made. Major

amendments – when the change would significantly affect the university

communal interest or the quality of the campus environment – will

reintroduce Steering Committee and campus community participation and

must be approved by the Board of Governors. Minor amendments would

be approved by the Vice-President (Finance and Administration), who will

report the changes to the Building Program Committee of the Board of

Governors and the campus community once made.

Plan Monitoring: Each year, a report on any measures taken to

implement the Plan is made to the Building Program Committee of the

Board of Governors.

General Updates: The Plan will be publicly reviewed at five year

intervals, and approved by the Board of Governors. The principles and

demonstration will be reconsidered, and accumulated amendments

incorporated.

Supplementary Planning Studies

Supplementary planning studies (such as Storm Water Management,

Space Management and Environmental Sustainability) should be formally

approved as sub-sets of the Campus Master Plan, and thus have the

status of policy. If parts of a supplementary plan contradict the Plan and

the contradiction is justifiable and desirable, and if this occurs in between

the five-year general reviews, a plan amendment is required. If the timing

coincides with that of the general review, the supplementary plan can be

affirmed as part of that review.

Testing Projects against the Plan

The Assistant Vice-President (Facilities Management and Planning) or

designate (The Campus Plan Administrator) tests all projects against the

Plan at all stages, and reports consistency or otherwise to the Board.

When a project is identified, a site in the Plan is selected. An important

criterion is how the project’s program and location will contribute to the

needs of campus as a whole, as well as to the needs of the specific

group of users, by meeting a majority of planning principles.

During schematic design, the Plan’s principles and demonstration provide

guidance, and measures for establishing compliance.

Each submission for approval at the Board’s Building Program Committee

includes a report on the project check against the Plan.

Selecting Sites: A Checklist

This plan provides guidance for site selection is provided throughout this

report. The most relevant points are summarised here, with references to

the source in the plan. The palette of sites from which a selection can be

made are contained in the Massing Studies section.

1.Building type: If an academic function, is it within the Academic

Campus? See Strategy 2, Compact Academic and Research Campus. If

an athletic or non-academic function but related to university programs,

is it within the Mid Campus? If a residential function, is it within the

Residential Campus?

2.Program size: how closely does the size of building match the size of

site? If a potential site can accommodate a greater program, can it be

subdivided? See Massing Studies and Appendix A: Statistics.

3.Programmatic relationships: How closely connected is the site to

related programs for ease of student and faculty interchange?

4.Space management: Can the program be met without building afresh

on a new site? See Strategy 14, Space Management.

5.Contribution to spatial structure: How can the program and building

type enhance the spatial structure of the campus? See Strategy 3,

Campus structure and Strategy 12, Development Priority.

6.Movement: How would development enhance movement priorities?

See Strategy 4, Movement.

7.Connections: How would development encourage connections and

presence to Bronson Avenue, the Rideau River and Massey Park, and the

Canal and Arboretum? See Strategies 5, Connections to Surroundings; 8,

River Access; and 12, Development Priority.

8.Parking: Can the budget accommodate the added cost of structured

parking? See Strategy 9, Parking.

9.Development priority: How well can the site and program meet

campus-wide development priorities? See Strategy 12.

10.Cost: What is the comparative cost for developing the site for new

infrastructure, loss of parking, need to build structured parking, removal

of buildings, etc.

The greatest transformation of the physical environment of the campus will come from the completion of two

projects: the Entry Quad and flanking buildings, and the Main Quad Revitalization including Dunton Tower

Base, Library Front and Paterson Hall replacement.
