Area A Concepts




A1 Gayley Road  Top
Preserve and enhance the rustic character of Gayley Road as the seam linking the campus and the hills. Maintain an informal, varied setback with an average depth of at least 40'.

Consider reconstruction of the roadway to accommodate bike lanes and more generous sidewalks and landscaping (initiative 5.3).


A2 East Gate  Top
Remove the turn lanes, and redesign East Gate to improve pedestrian safety and visual image at this major campus entry.


A3 Stanley Replacement  Top
(Regents approval May 2002) Site and design new Stanley to frame and activate the Mining Circle, and provide both formal enclosure and human scale.


A4 Donner Replacement  Top
In lieu of retrofit, consider replacing Donner with a new building to complement Stanley and consolidate service for both buildings.

Design both new Stanley and new Donner with an articulated edge along Gayley Road to complement the rustic landscape.


A5 Founders' Rock  Top
Relandscape Founders' Rock to enhance its visibility. Remove the turn lane to enlarge the forecourt and improve pedestrian safety, and renovate the path into campus.


A6 Mining Circle  Top
Restore the Mining Circle to its historic role as both open space and visual landmark. Recapture the view from the Mining Circle to the Central Glades and the Bay beyond.


A7 Davis Replacements  Top
Replace Davis North with a new building configured to create a visual terminus at LeRoy and a gracious entry to the campus.

In lieu of retrofit, consider replacing Davis South with a new building sited and designed to create an east-west route through the Engineering complex.


A8 McLaughlin Esplanade  Top
Redesign this north-south route through the Engineering complex as a pedestrian esplanade and place of interaction, closed to vehicles.


A9 Hesse & O'Brien Replacements  Top
In lieu of retrofit, consider replacing Hesse and O'Brien with a new building designed to provide a more active, transparent edge along the new esplanade.


A10 Memorial Green  Top
Create a new green to complete the east end of Memorial Glade, with views west to the Bay and south to the Campanile.

Remove the existing surface parking lot and extend Campanile Esplanade to the realigned University Drive.


A11 Evans Replacement  Top
In lieu of retrofit, consider replacing Evans with a building comprised of a matched pair of pavilions above grade, centered on the Mining Circle, with linked contiguous floors below grade.

Design the pavilions to create a formal, active edge for the Mining Circle, but to also provide a view through to the Glades and the Bay.

Incorporate a pedestrian loggia on the west frontage, to create a continuous ADA route linking Campanile and McLaughlin Esplanades.


A12 Campbell Replacement  Top
Replace Campbell with a new building similar in form and scale to the existing building and Tan Hall, to reinforce the formal composition of Gilman Esplanade and the Mining Circle.

Incorporate a new entrance to the Physical Sciences complex on University Drive and consolidated service access on South Drive.


A13 Gilman Esplanade  Top
Relandscape the north-south route through the Chemistry and Physical Sciences complexes as a pedestrian esplanade and place of interaction, closed to vehicles.


A14 South Drive  Top
Close South Drive to private vehicles between the Chemistry and Physical Sciences service docks, except for preauthorized service and delivery trips to the Faculty Club.


A15 Lewis Replacement  Top
In lieu of retrofit, consider replacing Lewis with a new building designed to create a more formal enclosure of the Chemistry quad, with a more articulated edge along Gayley to complement the rustic landscape.
