Integrating Academic, Residential, and Recreational Uses in Functional Zones

Jefferson's original plan for the University fostered a sense of community by combining academic, residential and recreational uses into a compact "village" setting. Following this successful model, new development should integrate such complementary functions as student and faculty housing, teaching and research, administrative activities, sports and recreation, dining and retail support. Planning initiatives in support of this principle include:

The Carr's Hill arts and architecture complex
A new residential college north of Ivy Road between Emmet Street and Alderman Road, with commercial/retail businesses at street level
South Lawn Study

 



Parking and Transportation
Water Resources Management

Planning Workshops
Master Planning Council
