WRT, in association with Ground Reconsidered, developed a comprehensive landscape master plan for the university that combines site design, tree canopy, transportation, signage, lighting and storm water.
WRT focused on developing a strategic framework called the campus collage. The collage integrates the major systems in five major actions, and provides a flexible organization that addresses spatial, aesthetic, and prioritization demands. The major moves of the collage are creating a new quad, reimagining the pedestrian spines, creating and enhancing great spaces, claiming the public streets, and putting the extensive marginal spaces to better use. The project is proceeding concurrently with a facilities, utility, and city stormwater master plan, which requires close coordination and quick response to evolving parameters.
